Okay, glad to hear it, although I'd suggest that making sure all your servers
are synchronised for time is an even more basic lesson - it affects all sorts
of things (not least your brain when you come to look at log files later).
I have two fundamental principles when it comes to server time:
1. All machines must be set to the same time.
2. It's good if they're also set to the correct time.
Rule 1 is more important than rule 2 (ie: better to have all your machines
wrong in exactly the same way, than to have some correct and some incorrect).
Antony.
