Thanks - also in Sanskrit I found from google!

I could not find any direct way to get at the last umount time but I
wonder if this is recorded in the /var/log/messages file ?

I thought perhaps that syslog would "catch" umounts and record them to 
/var/log/messages. Obviously not by default. I was hoping someone would know if 
there is facility|level for syslog.conf for this. I couldn't identify it (if 
exists). I still believe that 'something' stores umount timestamps. I have a 
client who wants these recorded. Arrrrgggghhhhh!
