Re: Seting time
Because our time (in spring) changed from 6:00am ---> 7:00am. I remember doing this by using 'date'. I was hoping NetBSD would just take to a server to get latest time, then set NetBSD time with this. (from Washington D.C.

Hi, Todd Gruhn wrote: Last night I set clock 1hr ahead. how did you set it ahead? Today, X-clock still says time is 4:20pm (it should be 5:20pm). did you reboot/restart in the meanwhile? Why isnt this being set/changed? Must I use 'date' ??? what does "date" say in the console? The time you need or the old one? is the TimeZone correct? Riccardo
