LightSpeed 4.x: System Time or Date Incorrect
Symptom
System time or date is incorrect. See Long Description Note: Because the date command reads the Software Clock, and the software clock is an interupt driven clock, it can vary from the Bios clock, or hardware clock by a significant amount depending on system usage. If the system has not been rebooted for more than 12 hours it is better to reboot the system and then check the time before determining that adjustment to time is needed. A reboot may allow the system to adjust itself.
