I added netdate to the root crontab like so:
     0 2 * * * /usr/sbin/netdate -l 3300 >> /tmp/netdate

Now I get a message like this on /dev/tty1
     10-Aug-95 06:35 USER root pid 94 cmd /usr/sbin/netdate ....

How do I turn this message off????

I tried the following:
     1) /etc/rc.d/rc.M made the -l10 to -l0 for crond (no effect)
     2) my /etc/syslog.conf has *.notice, *.info and *.debug going to      
          /var/adm/messages

Thanks for any suggestions.

     Jerry
