I have a very annoying problem on my 2x333 PII machine. I live in Denver and the timezone is MST. While the time gets set correctly at boot and date reports it correctly it shows up wrong in top and in Netscape Messanger (These are just two instances where I've noticed it). The time reported by top and the "received/sent" timesatmp set by NS Messanger is of by 7 hrs, corresponding to GMT!!!! For example: [alenkei@everest:~]>date Mon Jan 18 11:19:22 MST 1999 top shows: 6:19pm up 15:19h, 0 users, load average: 1.16, 1.35, 1.26 49 processes: 46 sleeping, 3 running, 0 zombie, 0 stopped CPU states: 109.6% user, 10.2% system, 0.0% nice, 0.0% idle Mem: 126968K av, 123760K used, 3208K free, 49308K shrd, 2848K buff Swap: 128484K av, 28468K used, 100016K free 28584K cached As you can see I don't use UTC time. [alenkei@everest:~]>more /etc/sysconfig/clock UTC=false ARC=false Does anyone on this list have any idea how this can be? Where does top get the time from? Any help would be greatly apreciated. /Andrei - Linux SMP list: FIRST see FAQ at http://www.irisa.fr/prive/mentre/smp-faq/ To Unsubscribe: send "unsubscribe linux-smp" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
