Currently my system clock is set to 1st january 1985. Of course I'm not setting it myself - it's switched automatically.

Is there anybody with similar bug?

Yes, a bug. You can't even set the date to 29-feb-08. The 'date' command just outputs it's help text about syntax and won't accept 29 as a valid day.

Hi all,

yes this is an annyoing bug! I can't even read or print the mails I've sent with YAM, as they are simply not visible.

Hopefully they will become visible tomorrow.

Regards

And we made fun of the millenium bug, patch please! (please don't answer it will be included in MOS 2.0, we need it BEFORE next leap year).

Same here. Is this a MOS-specific bug or does it exist in other OSes as well?
