If memory serves me correctly and at times it does not, but that's another story for another day; there is I believe a file you edit to show local time. This actually would be in the case where your machine is setup for UTC and you edit some file so that if if your time zone is Eastern and someone from the West coast logs in, they see their actual local time not the Easter time. Isn't that correct? Is there a howto on this subject? Don't recall seeing one, but might be kinda fun to setup. Actually would be something to setup the login so that it displays both the local and universal times. Surely that would be possible. Scott
