The date command I have doesn't seem to reset the CMOS clock. And I *can't* do it from DOS (Trust me, I *really* can't - it's a long story involving monitor types and invisible screens etc) Is there a 386bsd program yet which will do this? Many thanks Graham PS I've moved house and SLIP access now costs me too much to afford to read news at home; would you mind (R)eplying with the answer please?
