System Time
I know this is a minor thing, but it's one of my pet peeves -- the time on this server is apparently between 5-10 minutes ahead of the actual time. Can't you guys use AboutTime or one of those programs to sync it up with NIST or USNO or something? Like I said, I know it's a minor issue, but I figured it couldn't hurt to ask.

Ah yeah, that's it. The pages are cached, so they always show the wrong time, I think.

Uhhh... how does that work? The DV index page currently says it's 7:40am, but it's only 7:32 (give or take a minute). How can a time in the future be cached?

You'd have to ask icedawg about that. I know the magical-past-time problem, but I've never seen that before. Maybe your clock is wrong?

Mine isn't off by more than a minute -- just checked with USNO to be sure.

we're running a 'virtual' server, which means there's at least one other client sharing it with us (or there could be). thus, although i have control over all the software and whatnot, i cannot adjust the system time (i've tried). recently ipower synced the time, but it has been slowly falling back again.
Each new day is a chance to turn it all around.

oh, that sucks. Well, it's not much a problem for me...I'd type more in this post but my cat is attacking me right now.
