Description Christoph Peltz 2004-11-24 23:36:08 UTC
I cannot set the date of my box. Everytime I do it it somehow turns back to the 
state befor. I have found out that the clock script in /etc/init.d does this or 
better after starting or restarting of the clock script the date changes always 
to a date "now +1 Month +1 Day +1 Hour" (example: We have the 11th November 2004, then my date would say 12th December 2004) the year is okay and the other twos are alway a little bit blind shots...
