My local time is different to the time on my server. What do I have to edit in the links.cfg to display the correct time.
thanx

Well, that would be a little complicated. Links uses Time::Local, which is the a local module on the server. If you are referring to your "local" PC, you will have to synchronize your time with your server time.

open db_utils.pl and go to sub get_time
change the line:
my ($sec, $min, $hour, @junk) = localtime ($time);
to read:
my ($sec, $min, $hour, @junk) = localtime ($time + 28800);
28800 is the number of seconds in 8 hours (60 seconds times 60 minutes times 8 hours). I don't really know if that works, but that's what I read in a thread a while back.

Sorry, I think I asked the wrong way.
The Serverlocation is America, my Homepage is in Germany.
I want to know, what I have to edit that the servertime is displayed +8 hours.

[ I'm just getting Links2 up and running so this is my first post here. ]
When I just tried this on my server, which is 3hrs behind (10800 secs) and did a rebuild, the time was correct but the day was off.
From your experience, is this a one time deal because I made the change when I (on the east coast) was on the 21st while my server (on the west coast) was still on the 20th or can I expect the date to be wrong 3 hours every day?
TIA
