This is morning message from CRON:

Subject: Cron <root@linuxbox> rdate -p -s clock-1.cs.cmu.edu && hwclock 
--systohc
 
[clock-1.cs.cmu.edu]    Tue Apr 16 04:59:42 2002
/bin/sh: hwclock: command not found

I have checked that hwclock does work.  I am running the command (at one 
point a script) as root to sync the system time with the closest best ping 
time timeserver and for the life of me I cannot get the script to finish 
successfully and update the hardware clock as well.

Below is the script I was using before just the command line, neither seem to 
work.  Any Ideas?

The one that mimics the SxS:

if rdate -s clock-1.cs.cmu.edu; then
   hwclock --systohc
fi

The one someone else told me to try:
rdate -s clock-1.cs.cmu.edu && hwclock --systohc

As you can see running it in a term gives me no errors:
[root@linuxbox /root]# hwclock
Tue Apr 16 08:19:23 2002  -0.903347 seconds
[root@linuxbox /root]# hwclock --systohc
[root@linuxbox /root]#

I canset my time to some ungoddly months days and hours 
off and as soon as I run the script my system time is correct but my hwclock, 
from cron gives command not found.

TIA,
