filename => hostname (my typo)
Note that your "maxpoll 5" didn't make it either.

The parser actually does complain. But if you are like me and put the log
file in the config file rather than the command line, the parser errors go to
syslog.
We could consider having ntpd crash if there are any problems parsing the
config file.
The current NTS code will crash (exit) if it has problems with various files.
I can't tell if that is a bug or feature.

Not my problem. Nobody told me to open anything.
