The issue, however, appears to lie not with Apache specifically, but with Nagios. The timestamps that Apache puts in its log files show the correct timezone, so the server itself is seeing the correct timezone. On the other hand, I suspect that unless Nagios is doing something weird (which, from what I have been told, it isn't) any other CGI that attempted to get the time would have the same issue. So who's fault is it really? In my opinion, I would think that since the Nagios CGI's need the file to display the time correctly, it should have been linked/copied by the Nagios installer. By default, Apache would have no need for this file, so I can understand the Apache install not doing it. I suppose there might be SOME reason that the Nagios package maintainer decided not to link or copy this file by default, but such a reason eludes me. ----------------------------------------------- Israel Brewster Computer Support Technician Frontier Flying Service INC. 5245 Airport Industrial Rd Fairbanks, AK 99709 ----------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
