Hi , I am adding new public server ip address to ntp.conf file.During run time i want to restart the ntpd after reconfiguring. I tried with SIGHUP kill -SIGHUP ntpdpid It's killing the ntpd but not restarting ntpd.please let me know the solution.
Unlike other unix-like-services, the ntpd does not handle SIGHUP so the SIGHUP simply terminates the ntpd. I think you may write a wrapper, for example a shell script, in which ntpd is in a loop so after it restarts after being terminated.
