Are you sure that there isn't one in place already? I receive the following at the top of e-mailed Bacula job logs all the time: 10-May 03:34 www1: DIR and FD clocks differ by -4 seconds, FD automatically adjusting. Don't know how the FD is adjusting, but I would assume that it is in such a way to allow incremental/differential backups to work. Of course, if the client system wrote a file with a time stamp that's even in the future of it's own clock, then all bets are obviously off. Might as well back it up, though..... :-) -Arthur ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Arthur Emerson III Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Network Administrator InterNIC: AE81 Mount Saint Mary College MaBell: (845) 561-0800 Ext. 3109 330 Powell Ave. Fax: (845) 562-6762 Newburgh, NY 12550 SneakerNet: Aquinas Hall Room 6 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
