im opening again since im experiencing this on feisty and believe it to be a bug.
if you manually change the time to a few hours earlier after having used sudo you will now be unable to run any system preferences tools. since they use gksudo e.g. network-admin will quit quietly. even if it "only" takes 15 minutes this behaviour seems very confusing to a user who cant do any config for this length of time...i think this might be a bug in sudo... my error is also sudo: timestamp too far in the future: Mar 28 12:44:36 2007 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ** Changed in: sudo (Ubuntu) Status: Rejected => Unconfirmed -- sudo: timestamp too far in the future https://launchpad.net/bugs/76639 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
