[wplug] Incorrect Time on New Install of Fedora Core 1

[William Powell]

I just installed Fedora Core 1 on a hobby machine.  During one of the 
initial boots I verified the correct time and date was set using the 
BIOS setup screen.  Well after the installation was complete and I was 
installing additional packages I noticed that the date was set to a time 
& date several months in the future(08/18/2004).  I don't know how the 
date got moved up.  The clock on that machine has always been pretty stable

Can I set the system time back to the present without hosing the 
system?  Many of the system files have the Aug. date.  I hadn't done 
much before I noticed the problem.  I was trying to run up2date and rpm 
to update and add packages and was having trouble with the gpg 
signatures for Red Hat Inc.  Could this be because the clock error? 

I had generated my gpg keys, but that is about the only thing that I had 
actually done before I noticed the problem.

Any thoughts?

Bill
