Thanks, i can confirm that /etc/default/rcS does have UTC=yes our hwclocks all show the same time as date.. fly:~# /sbin/hwclock Tue Oct 7 15:44:28 2003 -0.622797 seconds fly:~# date Tue Oct 7 15:44:30 NZDT 2003 all of our debian servers show the same behaviour, my fellow sysadmins are adamant that the hwclocks where set to UTC during setup. If fact one sysadmin *knows* he asked it to be set to UTC. Can other people take a look at their systems? -- \_ Billy Naylor Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] </' Actrix Networks Ltd Office: +64 04 801 5225 ext 405 /) 282 Wakefield St Mobile: +64 021 175 3650 (/ Wellington, New Zealand -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
