That would be a bug, given that this stats directory is apparently
optional. (It logs through syslog just fine without the stats dir.)
What evidence did you see that makes you think it wasn't working?
.
A nominal +12 minute error was not corrected despite several restarts of
ntpsec. Reading the .conf it finally dawned that I did not have that
directory, so I made it, chowned it to ntpsec:ntpsec and by the time I
had looked to see the that it was using that dir, I found the clock was
by then about .0017 microseconds off. Serendipity? DarnedifIknow.
Take care, stay warm and well, Greg.
Cheers, Gene Heskett.
