> I've been running YDL-2.3 for a couple of months now and everytime I
shutdown, it fails to terminate something called ntpd.  It's not that big of

to know:

Network Time Protocol Daemon

You probably are not hooked up to a time server

At a prompt enter "ntsysv" without quotes
Scroll down and look for NTPD in the list, hit the space bar to remove it
from startup
or, Look up NTPD on Google and configure it to look for a time server.
