Hi all..
This is a message to all participants on the list...
Please make sure the date and time on your PC is correct.. I have over the last week got many messages with totally incorrect dates and it makes sorting by date a useless excersise..
For those of you who don't know how to do it..
Firstly find the closest open time server to you.. http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~mills/ntp/clock2a.html
Test it by running "rdate -p time.server.name"in a terminal window.. You should get it printing out the current time on the screen, anything else means the server did not respond properly so choose another server..
Then..
Go to "System Settings" > "Date and Time" and using the NTP server you have chosen you can get the time updated automatically (the clock.redhat.com and clock2.redhat.com don't seem to be working).. You could also set you date manually on this screen..
Or you can simply run "rdate -s time.server.name" which will get the system time synced up to the time server..
When you shutdown you PC the hardware clock will be synced to the system time, or you can run "hwclock --systohc" to do it manually..
Later..
