I'm going a bit bonkers trying to figure out how to automatically
recalculate my frontpage webs so that the scheduled include pages will
"take." A tool called Jimco Publisher used to do this, but it doesn't
work for me any more and it's no longer supported. I've tried to
figure out how to use owsadm or fpsrvadm to do it, to no avail.

There's just got to be a simple way to do this, other than signing on
to the site with frontpage every day of the year, rain or shine,
vacation or not, and doing a recalc.

Anybody figured this one out yet?

No simple, but doable in VBA
You can create a VBA app in say Excel to open your FP site (the FP object model is accessible in MSO VBA), run the recalc and then
close your FP site
Then you can set it up as scheduled task (in windows) to run your excel workbook (autostart / recalc web / auto close)

Or you can do the whole thing in a custom VB script

In both cases extensive error trapping and server timeout issues need to be handled
