Thanks Tim.
This is a nice refresher.  It has been a long time since I’ve used a Unix 
command line for this kind of thing.

Hi Simon,

Good instructions at this link:

<http://osxdaily.com/2012/07/04/set-system-time-mac-os-x-command-line/>

Basically, it depends on whether or not you have access to, or wish to use, an 
NTP service, or if you wish to set the date/time manually.  ntpdate "ntpdate" 
is the command for the time server and just "date" for the manual time set.

Later...

Hi list,
 
Can someone remind me of the correct command to set the date and time on a 
machine using the terminal?
 
I’m sure I have it right but it’s not staying changed.
 
Chers for any assistance.
