Just for the record, my hardware clock is set to UTC.

I imagine this is because cron was started when my timezone was MST7MDT, and was still behaving accordingly (that is, according to the broken MST7MDT timezone rules). When I changed the timezone to Canada/Mountain, therefore, cron would not have noticed, at least until it's restarted. -- Scott Barker [EMAIL PROTECTED] Linux Consultant http://www.mostlylinux.ab.ca/scott Help me spread the word: I'm single and looking for a relationship. http://www.mostlylinux.ab.ca/scott/single.shtml [ Unsolicited commercial and junk e-mail will be proof-read for US$100 ] "Without something, there is no nothing." - Chief, _Spice World_
