Actually I think I found what I was looking for in the shutdown man page. It looks like I want to add the hardware clock setting to an rc.{0,6} script. Just out of curiosity, why did my clock get out of whack when daylight savings changed in the first place? If my hardware clock's set to GMT, and my timezone (US/Central) knows about the time change, shouldn't it have been fine? Thanks -- Rob
