xntpd writing to wtmpx instead of wtmps
Hello all,
I'm currently on HP-UX B.11.31 and I'm having trouble determining how to configure xntpd such that it logs it's activity to wtmps instead of wtmpx as it's confusing my auditing scripts. I don't see an option in /etc/ntpd.conf for that and can't seem to find out how to do it anywhere.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Re: xntpd writing to wtmpx instead of wtmps
Greetings,
Files such as wtmp, wtmps and wtmpx are logged as part of "Accounting" software. While I am not sure what xntpd is logging in wtmpx, it is better to let the default processes/system-calls write to their respective logs and you modify your script to check them. All the best!
NOTE : It is a repost as the previous one does not seem to be visible here
