You probably need the firmware update:

Rev 1.1 12/20/1996 13:07:21

Rev 4.1 12/01/2005 14:45:23

Hi Bob, I've just this minute joined this list, because I Tymserve
2100 unit we have at work has just started doing the same thing, at
just gone 1am UT on May 3rd. I've also tried restarting and power
cycling (this is somewhat convoluted as the unit is ~3000 miles away
from me) but it's firmly stuck in 1995
Ours is currently running Rev 3.1 :
5 ? version
Boot Code - Tymserve_2100
Rev 1.1 12/20/1996 13:07:21
Main Code - TymServe_2100
Rev 3.1 08/22/2002 12:15:37
After a power cycle, our unit comes up as follows:
3 ? time
JAN 01 1995 00:01:53.687252
After the GPS has locked this changes to:
5 ? time
SEP 17 1995 20:14:35.479915
Where 20:14 was the correct UT time.
cheers

My Tymserve 2100 gps unit (Rev 4.1) thinks it's 1995 -- September 17,
1995.
But a restart (connect via telnet and give the commands util restart)
brings it back to the correct time and date -- for a while? I haven't
caught it dropping back, so i don't know if it's doing this on the
hour, after an hour, or what, but I noticed it last night, and I've
restarted it a few times today.
Any clues?
I know about the off-by-a-second issue with the pending leap second.
This one is more interesting!
So far I've just been issuing software restarts. The next time I'll
power cycle the sucker and see if that does any good.
GPS signal isn't the issue; the 2100 shares an external GPS antenna
with my Thunderbolts through a Symmetricom 58536A GPS splitter, and
the Thunderbolts are as happy as a Thunderbolt can be.
