Certainly not cron. >Anybody knows this? I have been "googling" and haven't found any >response to this. Try including "RTC" in your searches. I belive that the RTC (real time clock) must be always referencing the timezone file, but I don't know more than that (I may be wrong, but I think it would have to, at least periodically). Probably you will have to look at the kernel source code. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. -- ---------------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] - System Administrator - Cedar Creek Software www.cedarcreeksoftware.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
