in thread Perl CGI ability to start linux services
I don't see you using sudo anywhere... (that would be sudo /etc/init.d/ntpd start).
To avoid having to mess with entering passwords, it's probably best to make use of the NOPASSWD: option, e.g. something like (in /etc/sudoers):
apache localhost = NOPASSWD: /etc/init.d/ntpd
(see man sudoers for the details)
