Hi Folks,
I'm trying to put together a simple to report at boot time how
long the system was down.
The script itself isn't really a problem, but I'm coming up short
looking for a reliable way to determine exactly when the sytem
went down regardless of whether it was a clean reboot or a crash.
Am I missing something simple? I've thought about writing a simple
little program to touch a file once per second invoked by the downtime
rc script after querying the last time the file was touched... but
there must be a simpler solution.
Thoughts?
Thanks,
John
