The Time

Pojo · 30-05-2008

I've noticed that the time for the site is wrong...My settings are all right for it, but the time says 2:31PM, when it's 5:40PM...

I've had the same problem.

Martin · 30-05-2008

I've seen it in an other thread too. It's the server's time is wrong somehow.

hell ive never noticed it til now

I really don't pay attention to it. It says its 7am, when its really 5pm here... I just go by "4hrs ago..." etc...

Common problem with servers. The "local" time gets set in the clock, instead of UTC, and THEN a timezone offset gets applied. So the time ends up being offset twice

Then the minutes would be correct which they aren't.

NTP = Network Time Protocol. (it syncs the clock)
