Does anyone know if this could be a potential problem with FreeBSD? ---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Subject: UNIX TIP: DATE CHANGE SEPT 9TH Date: Tue, 10 Jul 2001 14:10:42 -0700 From: Unix Guru Universe <listserv@ugu.com> =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= UNIX GURU UNIVERSE & UNIX911.com UNIX HOT TIP Unix Tip 1652 - July 10, 2001 http://www.ugu.com/sui/ugu/show?tip.today =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= DATE CHANGE SEPT 9TH We are checking with SUN and other vendors to confirm the following tip that was sent in. We wanted to pass it on so those that may be affected could plan for the change: ----- The unix time() value becomes 10 digits for the first time on Sun Sep 9 01:46:40 2001 For the first time in modern computer history, the timestamp will be something besides 9 digits. That could break things. ----- If anyone knows more please contact tips@ugu.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------- To Subscribe: http://www.ugu.com/sui/ugu/show?tip.subscribe To Unsubscribe: http://www.ugu.com/sui/ugu/show?tip.unsubscribe To Submit A Tip: http://www.ugu.com/sui/ugu/show?tip.today ========================================================================== DISCLAIMER: All UNIX HOT TIPS ARE OWNED BY THE UNIX GURU UNIVERSE AND ARE NOT TO BE SOLD, PRINTED OR USED WITHOUT THE WRITTEN CONSENT OF THE UNIX GURU UNIVERSE.
