screwed up system time!

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



I am really pissed at myself for doing such a thing but here's what I
did. Awhile back, geez, weeks ago now, I put together this amd 64
clawhammer system. I set it up and never adjusted the date to the
correct time (year) and after burning it in for bout a week...It was
online but I really wasn't doing anything w/it...I would just go to it
every now and then just to make sure It was up and that was it.

kk...finally I decided to let it "take the ball"(common ip), and let it
do all the serving and syncing up the other 2 centos boxes. Oh my, now
what a mess w/all the files it's syncing up w/all the wrong dates...I
year back...2005 instead of 2006!!!

I now have 3 centos boxes in total confusion over this file time
problem!!!

I feel really ashamed of myself for doing such a thing but I can't be
concerned w/that but rather repair all this mess.

I am looking for suggestions on how to repair this mess. My mind is
telling me that right now, don't let any of the 3 boxes talk to each
other until I got it right again and 1 by one re-install from scratch
each of the systems but then, there is still all the /home, /root, mail
files, that still have to be reckoned with.

I don't really think that's the way to go...I am thinking of some kind
of script to look at access dates and like say everything that was
accessed on say, last Jan...change it to jan 06

I really don't know the best approach here.

thx
