Hi Kerin,

That indeed solves the problem in 'accesstime.sh', although I would
recommend some sort of reference from the bash manpage to the mount
manpage.

Did you have a look at the 'conditional.sh' script too? Looks like the
'-N' switch compares only the integer part of the timestamp seconds.

Regards,
Mischa.
