This is a strange one. Cygwin 1.7.9-1, coreutils 8.10-1. Both 'date' and 'ls' show times that are ahead of the system clock by about 9 minutes, 24 seconds. For example, at the moment my system clock shows 10:05 AM. This agrees with the 'time' command in CMD:
C:\Documents and Settings\aschulma>time The current time is: 10:05:42.05 But in Cygwin: $ date Mon, Sep 26, 2011 10:15:18 AM $ touch /tmp/tst $ ls -l /tmp/tst -rw-r----- 1 ASchulma Administrators 0 Sep 26 10:15 /tmp/tst cygcheck -svr output is attached.
