      * An ongoing debate between Sean Dennis and Ben Ritchey rages on ...               SD> In Slackware, you could put it in /etc/rc.d/rc.local.        SD> Out of curiosity, why are you needing to do this and reboot?              I have plenty of date oriented jobs that could benefit from linux, and afford       me a chunk of playtime to boot. I just need a way to start 'em and finish it       clean. Actually I would need a shutdown function not a reboot (g). Win 7 Pro       will start a Debian VM same time each day which does it's thing then       disappears. :)              --       Guardien Fide :^)               Ben aka cMech Web: http://cmech.dynip.com        Email: fido4cmech(at)lusfiber.net        Home page: http://cmech.dynip.com/homepage/        WildCat!
