When a        N> new user is added, the users.dat file's timestamp chages. I have a        N> script that checks the timestamp of the users.dat file every hour,        N> if the timestamp is new then it kills the pid and restarts jamnntpd.              ahhh... that only works in some cases... i don't currently see it working on       windows and depending on the compiler used, it may or may not work on OS/2...        )\/(ark               * Origin: (1:3634/12)    |
