I just logged on to mclap and the time was 22GMT. I'm not sure why it would work when you first boot and not after a while, but here's something to try. Open a root window and run control-panel. Select the date/time icon, change the date and select the set system clock. Then reboot. Run the command 'date' from the command line and see if it is the correct MST date. >I heard from NSF that they are now shooting for 1 March for their decision >deadline. Are we talking Pentium III's ? Probably not, but it could bump you up to a 450 MHz Pentium II. ;-) Let me know what happens with the date changing. Don
