how often does recurringdowntime.pl run?

EDIT: Nevermind, I should have read the full page. Found that cron tasks, including recurringdowntime.pl, run at the top of the hour.:

"Scheduled downtime definitions that are designed to repeat (recur) at set intervals are shown below. The next schedule for each host/service are added to the monitoring engine when the cron runs at the top of the hour."

maybe the External Command Interface is just using the browsers autocomplete history

This actually is true. There isn't an auto-complete on the schedule downtime page Only the recurring downtime page.

Ah, thanks Scott.
