It seems like the problems, if any, would probably be more problems from the actual roll-over from the year 1999 to 2000, so probably the best thing would be to set your computer's date to Dec. 31, 1999, and see what happens to your processes when it hits midnight. -Sam -- VA Research Linux Workstations Engineered like no other http://www.varesearch.com Sam Ockman - (415)934-3666, ext. 133 -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
