Checking NTP via UDP
Does anyone have a simple send/expect script
to check a Red Hat ntpd server? ntp-4.1.1-1
We use What's Up Gold for monitoring our boxes
and want to add our NTP servers, too. IP Switch
says that NTP servers vary too much, so they're
unable to provide a sample script.

What exactly is it that you want to "check"?

Just to check that the ntpd service is running.
I was going to just do an ntpdate command,
but the server doing the checking is another
ntpd, and I get a "socket is in use" message.
The WUG server does not run ntpd, so it will
not have any socket problems, but it runs on
Windows and does not have ntpdate.

How about doing a public key SSH connection to the server and checking the process with ps?
