The current time (at the time you entered the command) is 1027940092. Why does this prove that the current time at runtime wasn't 926511414 ? I can't tell you that nobody at your site didn't make a mistake. What I can tell you is that it seems strange to me that your update takes place at *exactly* Mon Jul 29 12:30:00 2002 MET DST and the next update is *not* at an exact 5-minute interval: 926511414 means Wed May 12 14:16:54 1999 MET DST I would expect time 1027938900, this is a difference with 926511414 of 101427486 or 0x060BA91E. To me this number looks nothing special so I think no programming error is involved (at least: not RRDtool). Some random possibilities: - NTP messing up, due to clock problems on another computer - Hacker trying to break something by adjusting the time. Look in your logs and carefully check the time span from 12:30 to 12:40. There may be lines in there that indicate the clock was set wrong. And as a side note: if you expect people to help it may be a good idea to at least mention your OS, its version and the RRDtool version you're using. Note "at least". -- __________________________________________________________________ / [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] \ | work private | | My employer is capable of speaking therefore I speak only for myself | +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Technical questions sent directly to me will be nuked.
