What is the need for a reboot. maybe you can just give a rogue process a HUP every 24 hours.... But i still "SUSPECT" /sbin/shutdown -r can still be done via cron. -Wash -- Odhiambo Washington Inter-Connect Ltd., wash@iconnect.co.ke 5th Flr Furaha Plaza Tel: 254 11 222604 Nkrumah Rd., Fax: 254 11 222636 PO Box 83613 MOMBASA, KE.
