Yes it does. The machine is used for burning CDs and they are ide-scsi. Can you recommend a way to test this? Any work-arounds? Time is not critical on this machine -- I suppose I could just crontab ntpdate. Thanks James, Hum... So, how does cron keep from running things twice if the clock gets set back before the cron period? -- Bill Moseley mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
