No, at work, it appears that there is some weekly network maintenance which
leaves the machine on Monday morning unable to find it's dns entry (??) and
I just reboot it and it is fine.  I don't know what is causing the problem,
but I want to make sure it is up each day.

Thanks very much for the helpful response.  Yes, I looked at man crontab,
but I'm too new to put all the pieces together.  Thanks for the other
suggestions.  I'll read this weekend.
