It is a shame that the machines used in Suominet are not using LDM-6 for data relay, but, as Jeff said, they were all cut with the same image before being shipped. The thing I really wanted to chat with you about was the disappearance of bigbird: bigbird stopped reporting LDM-6 statistics several days back. Also, before it stopped reporting stats, I noticed that the clock was only getting set once-per-day (like it was running ntpdate out of cron, but the cron job was only running once a day). Any idea of what happened to bigbird? >Thanks, gerry Later... Tom >From address@hidden Tue Nov 4 06:19:54 2003 No idea on bigbird. I've been swamped recently and it hadn't show up on my radar, since it'd been working fine. I'll recheck NTP timesettings; I had started using ntpdate originally because of a firewall issue, since resolved, for ntp (no local server, another thing I intend to fix at its site). I'll let you know what happened. Gerry
