time/date sync and hwclock

[Bill Day]

Im not following the path issue...?

When the job is ran from a term, no matter what directory Im in, its fine, 
ran using Webmin -> Sheduled Cron Jobs -> (Select the job) -> "Run now" it 
runs fine, but if CRON runs it over night I get the hwclock command not 
found...

The job is set to run as root.

Thanks for the help.
