[comp.sys.sgi] Accounting UNIX

  Hello. The accounting data in Unix contains double fields
  called Prime/Non-prime. Does anybody Know if non-prime
  is simply based on the hours defined in /etc/holidays,
  or if it also considers the week-end days and the special
  days listed in /etc/holidays? In brief: non-prime would
  include hours outside prime + saturday hours + sunday hours
  + special day hours ? It beats me.

All Saturdays, Sundays and Holidays are considered non-prime.
This is according to my reading of the source code.  This should
be in the accounting manual pages, but doesn't seem to be - oops.
