| 1265907 | 2012-03-20 01:43:00 | :D Unless the question is along the lines of "how do i turn my pc on" (asking that online anywhere is silly), then there are no stupid questions. Let the man learn. ;) If you feed them you will never get rid of them :D |

But you have already confirmed what I knew, you are wasting our time.Only wasting your time. Others have contributed to the thread. Don't like, don't post |

| 1265911 | 2012-03-20 02:01:00 | i remember last year trying to change the time on one of the workstations, couldn't bloody do it till we had a technician in next. All for changing the bloody time. I realise this is done to stop me messing around with things. But if the machine was capable of updating itself for daylight savings I wouldn't have to worry about it. Which reminds me to book technician in again to change over again shortly Can you not get it set to use a time server. |

| 1265912 | 2012-03-20 02:05:00 | That said, I saw a post from Linus on Google+ the other day, was interesting, about why you would need root permissions to change the timezone or networking. Sparked some interesting discussion with some people I know. Then Matias asked why you even needed root to install software. Guess if you're installing the software in your home dir then it's a non-issue, but global / system-wide obviously needs permissions. Linus created a lot of debate on the net about that and in many ways I agree with him. As for Matias what an idiot. Maybe he should stick with an old version of Windows. |

| 1265914 | 2012-03-20 02:08:00 | Can you not get it set to use a time server.No idea, the machine is supplied by one of our machinery suppliers, it's running Solaris from memory. Their wont give us root access, not that I have pushed for it. Wouldnt know what to o with it anyway. | plod (107) | ||

Maybe he should stick with an old version of Windows. That was the consensus we came to also. I liked how he gave that dude grief about taking things personally, so the guy goes and takes things even more personal :p |
