Ok what have I done wrong? I believe my proper time zone is GMT -5 and I just posted a reply and it shows the time at 8:15 PM, it is 1:24 pm.
HELP!!! _________________

Perhaps, the server that hosts this site is outside the US of A? |

I reset mine to GMT -12 and the time is correct now.. I am on Central time..

Its something with the server software. One day it is correct & the next it is way off... I have adjusted it many times & it still goes off... |

Laaz, if your server is windows based and you are allowed to run a program on it, I have just developed a tiny program that will synchronize any computer to that of the first healthy atomic time servers that it can find. All of our processing with strict deadlines needed us to develop this tiny program which we just give away for free to our clients, and I can certainly give it to anyone I like. The program is non-intrusive, has no display, no advertisements, tiny footprint, and simply does its one thing, to synchronize your machine with that of atomic clocks. There are other free programs out there but they carry a ton of baggage. |

Joe on these free forums I don't have direct access to the server. Believe me if I did, I would change quite a few things. |

About a month ago I noticed my time was way off. Had it set for -5 & had to reset it to -12. Wondering when it will screw up again. Just have to watch it & then reset it I guess. _________________ Patty

Well it looks like the GMT -12 did the trick, thanks! Just an FYI should you hear on the news that "Woman in Brooklyn Park MN, goes crazy and is killing squirrels" it would be me, I didn't use any of that stuff I bought on my varigated lemon and this morning they nipped off a couple of leaves, and that means war!!! So out there this morning laying some of the granules around the perimeter of that pot and a couple others. Guess will have to get a motion detecting dog! _________________

Joan, you don't have to be crazy to kill squirrels! If anything, try puting cayenne pepper on. Maybe to make it stick, spray a little dawn soap with water on first. I tried it long ago & I think it worked. Just redo after rain.
Let us know if it works. _________________ Patty
