This is a little bit off the subject, but...

We have a line in /etc/crontab that should do a uucico at noon and midnight

          0 0,12 * * * uucp /usr/lib/uucp/uucico -r1 -sfernwood

and instead, it does it at 1am and 1pm.

Both "Preferences" and the Unix "date" command show the correct time.

What's going on?

                                        Thanks,

                                        Robert Munyer
