Try "1970-01-01 UTC". User-specified times are assumed to be in local time. If 1970-01-01 in your local timezone is before 1970-01-01 UTC, it won't be representable when converted to UTC, which prompts the above error. -Larry Jones Mr. Subtlety drives home another point. -- Calvin _______________________________________________ info-cvs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
