Hi all,

We here at Cable Online were wondering what impact there is, if any, on a
cronjob that is scheduled at 2am.

Digital, who are curently investigating, say that all will be fine, and
that the time and zone change will happen at 1am and will turn the clock
back by one whole hour. I have asked one of the tech people to give me a
breakdown on what happens and when.

So, along with that I was wondering if anyone out there knows of any
possible problems that may/will arrise on this wonderfull evening.

We are using mainly 3.2c on our Alpha's but will be going to 3.2g and
then 4.0 very soon.

Your comments are greatly appreciated, and I will post a summary before
the 26th if I have anything useful sent to me in response.


TIA

David
