Re: [newbie] Real time?
Uh, I think you mean rdate (the "r" for remote)...? Meph no Meph (?) Yes, Meph, as in Mephistopheles. look at my alias, tdate - rdate. Oops. Sorry. Hadn't noticed that bit. Maybe I misunderstood, but I thought the original problem was a mismatch of less than an hour. No, you got it, but the thread seemed to go off in various related directions. I vaguely remember this same problem on another list. If I remember correctly, it turned out that the time zone was off.

The internal clock in the BIOS is set correctly, but Linux is one hour too fast. I guess I could solve this by setting the internal clock in the BIOS to be one hour slow, but surely there must be some way that I can fix this, so that Mandrake understands that the time is the same as shown by the internal clock? In other words: where do I set the time? DRX
