Hi For some reason, my system clock has gone screwy. I lose varying amounts of time during the day.
I read these from an earlier post, and it works great, however, it's beginning to be come a pain to su to root and run them every couple of hours. So, I was perusing my Unix System V: A Practical Guide and decided to give contab a shot. >From the man pages and the book, I've come up with the following set of commands to get my system clock updated hourly: # crontab # 0 * * * * rdate time.nist.gov ; hwclock --systohc # control-D Will this work for updating my clock every hour on the hour? tia -- __ _ Mark Wagnon Debian GNU/ -o) / / (_)__ __ ____ __ Chula Vista, CA /\\/ /__/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / [EMAIL PROTECTED] _\_v____/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\ http://www.debian.org
