since updating to 5.9 a little while ago I find a load of these in /var/log/messages, which I've not seen before:

Dunno, but I upgraded to 5.9, rebooted and I do not have (yet) such errors... Do you also have the regular messages too when ntpd starts? Did you edit /etc/sysconfig/ntpd?

Here's what I see from rebooting last night after doing the updates. The first one appears to be during the shutdown, and the rest from the reboot:

And there are a bazillion more of those errors continuing up to more or less the moment I write this.
Did you edit /etc/sysconfig/ntpd?
No. should I have?

Everything I see on this issue says to restart the ntpd service when this happens. Does that help?

Johnny:
Dunno yet, just bounced it "/etc/rc.d/init.d/ntpd restart", so I'll watch it for a while and see what happens.

After making sure ipv4 is correctly configured (!), try stopping ntpd and execute "ntpdate -d 216.230.228.211". If it succedes, I'd look into selinux issues ("setenforce 0" and restart ntpd [This won't solve your problem, just pospone it to the next reboot!])
