The time update is still not working ... and it is quickly back to being 6-7 minutes wrong. Probably something inside the Touch is updating time in a very bad way.
I modified the time-spec so it executes every hour. With something inside the Touch providing bad clock, I need more frequent update. I tried to "chmod 700 root" ... so that the crontab is an executable - it doesn't make a difference (this is not a shell script, but rather a file that cron reads and executes). Unfortunately, as pgeorges has concluded, the instructions are not executed. Time is not fixed. I can run msntp manually ... but how many times a day do I want to do that? As pgeorges has noticed, there is no output file in /tmp either. I executed: # ps axfww | grep cron 1344 pts/0 S+ 0:00 \_ grep cron ... It seems cron is running. I just don't know how to make it set my time. I'm not sure but I found this hint in a post on debian-administration.org: A common cause with broken personal cron entries is that the crontab file doesn't contain a newline at the end of lines. ... I've added a new-line to the root crontab. I'll wait 40 minutes and see what happens. /Claus ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cfuttrup's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=32784 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98322 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
