Just doing a call to : sub get_time { ($sec,$min,$hour,$mday,$mon,$year,$wday,$yday,$isdst) = localtime(time - $diff); $mon++; } # end of get_time
where $diff equals zero. If I type date at my ksh ( MKS Korn Shell) I get: Sun Apr 21 07:58:25 PDT 2002 It is the same on both machines, but if I run the perl script on both machines: w2k: aapl079.pl: Load Bible Hash St : 15:00:09 MyDisp: 0 -> Passed to proc_step1 MySecs: 978350400 MyCurrSecs: 1019401209 110 18 40 437 478 110 19 12 205 217 Read Job 40 and Hebrews 12 for ( 4/21/ 2): Reading Books of Psalms: Normal : 21, 51, 81, 111, 141 Backward: 130, 100, 70, 40, 10 Random : 1, 78, 85, 101, 110 aapl079.pl: Load Bible Hash En : 15:00:09 nt 4.0: aapl079.pl: Load Bible Hash St : 08:00:09 MyDisp: 0 -> Passed to proc_step1 MySecs: 978350400 MyCurrSecs: 1019401209 110 18 40 437 478 110 19 12 205 217 Read Job 40 and Hebrews 12 for ( 4/21/ 2): Reading Books of Psalms: Normal : 21, 51, 81, 111, 141 Backward: 130, 100, 70, 40, 10 Random : 1, 78, 85, 101, 110 aapl079.pl: Load Bible Hash En : 08:00:09 The actual time is 08:00.

BTW, I should have been clearer, but what I was asking was if the machines were set to the same time zone in the time settings. It does appear that one system is giving out the GMT. Out of curiosity (and a desire to avoid as much pain in the future as possible), what are you doing that results in the different times? Is it a particular function or module? -----Original Message----- From: drieux To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 4/20/02 9:16 PM Subject: Re: Time being displayed is off my 7 hours On Saturday, April 20, 2002, at 07:21 , [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Yes.
