I think that the time problem was caused by the TimeZone CDev. I had the setting for -6 hours, and I had to set the IIgs clock 6 hours ahead to get accurate time. I don't think that was a coincidence. But for the date problem, I don't know. It thought that it was the 14th of April, when it was really the 17th. Why does SNAP even set a Date header line? The server usually provides it automatically. -- Mac GUI Vault - A source for retro Apple II and Macintosh computing. http://macgui.com/vault/
