I've tried this and I get:

#date -s world.std.com

date: invalid date 'world.std.com'

Is this an enhancement made to Mandrake 7.2?? I have 7.1 on my machine.  Is
that the problem?

Thanks in advance,
Mark

  Well, I'd seen this -- some time ago -- in the linux@egroups
list.  I think that it turns out to be a bios thing.  Have you
checked to be sure the time is set correctly there?
