But whenever there is a reboot the time flies back by hours. BTW I am running a BSD/OS 3.0 on a DELL Pentium 200. setting the time with the date option, would that help?? as I have some cron jobs running as well ( would they be affected, I am sure they would) also is there a way to set the correct time when there is a reboot (due to power outtages etc..) thanks for any ideas regarding this -CHR
