MGM out

Can you not get your hosts to correct this?

I'm with ventures online, and every VPS account I've had has been out... I just ask them to create a cron to run weekly and update the time against an Internet time server... and they've always done it straight away.

Afterall... the time on the system is part of their remit and not yours.

Not trying to diss the hack... may be very useful for some... but if the root cause is with your host... then get them to fix it. Can't help but think that if their servers are out, they'll continue to slip further out and you'll have to change your hack value all the time.
