Is there are way to have some schedules start randomly within their start
window and other start immediately?

I'm trying to figure out how to get laptops to automatically backup when
they have a network connection. I have a schedule with a 23 hour start
time (based on someone's suggestion) and the laptop has schedmode set to
polling. It connects & gets a schedule time, but since I have
randomization set for my other clients, the backup time may be hours away
and the laptop may no longer be connected to the network.

(Server is 5.2.2 on AIX, client is 5.3 on Windows in this case.)
Thanks.
