Hi all, I have a problem with ntpd daemon in my CentOS7 vm. When I try to list peers, command fails: [root at c7tst ntpstats]# ntpq ntpq> pe ntpq: read: Connection refused ntpq> My actual ntp.conf: # For more information about this file, see the man pages # ntp.conf(5), ntp_acc(5), ntp_auth(5), ntp_clock(5), ntp_misc(5), ntp_mon(5). driftfile /var/lib/ntp/drift # Permit time synchronization with our time source, but do not # permit the source to query or modify the service on this system. restrict default nomodify notrap nopeer noquery # Permit all access over the loopback interface.

Same ntp.conf works in my CentOS6.x hosts ... Any idea why?? (SELinux is disabled) Thanks.
