So make sure that pcmcia comes up before ntpd. I think the trick is to set the network device not to start on boot. So the network start will not try to start it. However, when pcmcia starts up, it will detect the network card and start the device anyway. It does not know that this a "start on boot". The "start on boot" option is more accurately described as "start device when network service is started". -- Norman Gaywood, Systems Administrator School of Mathematics, Statistics and Computer Science University of New England, Armidale, NSW 2351, Australia norm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Phone: +61 (0)2 6773 2412 http://turing.une.edu.au/~norm Fax: +61 (0)2 6773 3312 Please avoid sending me Word or PowerPoint attachments.
