Part of the problem might be that "clock" got changed to "hwclock" in 2.0. Check the man page for any parameter changes.
If rdate doesn't work, you could try ntpdate. jim ---------- From: Johann Spies[SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, August 27, 1998 12:12 PM To: Debian-poslys Cc: The recipient's address is unknown. Subject: ip-up? After upgrading to Debian 2.0 my ip-up doesn't seem to work anymore. I think Debian 2.0 handles it differently. My 1.3.1 ip-up file looks like this ---------------------------------------------- #!/bin/sh PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin export PATH runq /usr/sbin/rdate -s clock.psu.edu > /dev/null /usr/sbin/clock -w > /dev/null -------------------------------------------- I see there is now a directory named /etc/ip-up.d so I created a script file there with the name 'horlosie' with the last two lines of ip-up. However. It does not seem to work. In the past my computer's clock was updated every time I was connected to the internet. How do I correct that?
