Some filesystems do not support the mtime or ctime file attributes and must be considered fresh on every pass. You didn't say what filesystem was in use on the disklist entries involved, so I'd natually assume its a vfat partition or a samba share. I keep a "dos" partition here with just enough of the last version I ever bought, 5.0, to use as flashrom updateing and such. It gets a level 0 every night, but thats only a few megabytes. Can you elaborate? -- Cheers, Gene AMD K6-III@500mhz 320M Athlon1600XP@1400mhz 512M 99.21% setiathome rank, not too shabby for a WV hillbilly
