That means you need to update your zoneinfo tables. You can also use the date command to see if you need updating: date -r 1173679260 If that prints "Mon Mar 12 02:01:00 EST 2007" you know you need to update. -- Dan Nelson [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
