Being a person with many preoccupations, I tried to automate the process this way:
First, I set system time to the NIST standard (presumes I'm continually on line; if you are not, there's an alternative command). Then I set the hardware clock to the system time. I do this by writing a little executable: #! /bin/bash # Name this rc.time and put it into /etc/rc.d/ rdate -s time-b.nist.gov clock -w Then I put a symlink from /etc/cron.daily to this executable. The problem with this is that I don't know how to check up on it to ensure it is working ;-( Haines Brown -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
