It says at the bottom of the menu that all times are UTC ie GMT, so why does the blurb at the top of the Forums menu say that the largest no of people on the site was 186 on29/07/01 at 2241hrs? It is only 13.58hrs GMT, 1458 BST at the moment and it is still 29/07/01 Have we got an ozzie running the time clock? :confused: :confused: :confused:

If for some reason our hosting ISP has to reboot our server the clock will be wrong, and as soon as Danny or myself notice this we reset it. The hosting ISP won't do that as we do all systems admin (apart from backups) ourselves to keep costs down.

If I get the time :) I'll install an NNTP client so the clock is always correct.

Thank you for that info. I was just curious about what was going on and now I know. From all the little bits I keep finding out about PPRuNe I am beginning to wonder if any of you ever get any time off. Thanks for all the work. :D :D :D
