ntpd won't continue running on my "stratum 2" server (making our

using ktrace and kdump I get this prior to exit:
[ ... ]
The logging paths seen in the ktrace are rather non-standard--
perhaps ntpd doesn't have the right permissions to write to them?
Normally, ntpd logs to the NTP facility and critical messages might
appear in /var/log/messages, so additional clues are probably there.
Showing your ntp.conf file would also help, but if you'd like to see
an example of a working stratum-2 conf file which has been in use for
quite some time:
1-pi# cat /etc/ntp.conf
# /etc/ntp.conf, configuration for ntpd
driftfile /etc/ntp.drift
statsdir /var/log/ntp/
statistics sysstats
filegen sysstats file sysstats type week enable
