The command is just

date hhnn[mmdd][yyyy]

where n = minutes

can't remember whether it's ddmm or mmdd I'm  guessing mmdd

Subject: [leaf-user] hwclock error?


I tried to set the clock today, but I get this error, I must be looking
at the wrong man page.  Can't find any more doc. How does the syntax
belong? (Bering_rc2, soon to be rc3)
(also tried  hwclock --set --date="1026432127")


# hwclock --set --date='07/11/02 19:59:49'
date: invalid option -- -
BusyBox v0.60.2 (2002.04.04-20:23+0000) multi-call binary

Usage: date [OPTION]... [+FORMAT]

The date command issued by hwclock returned unexpected results.
The command was:
  date --date="07/11/02 19:59:49" +seconds-into-epoch=%s
The response was:
  
No usable set-to time.  Cannot set clock.



Thanks,
// George
