Is your local time supposed to be different than IST? Just wondering if you've got a time zone variable mis-set somewhere. Unless you're dual-booting the PC, it's normal (for Unix like systems) to run the clock on GMT, but *display* the time as suits your location. You can change your location as much as you like, and that doesn't affect logging or file timestamps adversely. -- (Currently running FC4, in case that's important to the thread) Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
