Robert,

Sure, thanks for the help. Here are log messages when I restart ntpd:
Jul 27 09:14:02 dc1 ntpd[30565]: ntpd exiting on signal 15

The ntp_signd directory is empty:
root at dc1:/# ls -l /var/run/samba/ntp_signd
total 0
root at dc1:/# ls -l /var/run/samba/ | grep ntp
drwxr-x--- 2 ntp  ntp              40 Jul  8 16:40 ntp_signd

Thanks,

Andrew
