I have a fleet of 486 computers lying around my room. One has a Y2K compliance card which didn't work well on the others :( . There's this Y2K workaround program that I found in www.linux.com . I haven't tried it, but I think I could make a simple workaround on my own(ie: a simple Perl or bash script). Could you give me suggestions/hints for this script? Ofcourse, the easiest way to work around this is to set the date manually every boot. How could I make a query for today's date under /etc/initd/rc.local? I know it runs programs in the background, so I'm wondering if it is possible for a Linux system to query for the present date at boot up.
