Default Server times?

I see posts by will wren, within the last hour that show up as 2:19.... It'* 1:48 here, and the time in my profile is set correctly... The board even states GMT -6 hours.

Hell this post came up @ 2:50pm..

Yeah, It appears the server clock is 1 hour fast.

I've been playing around since the post in suggestions. I've set the phpBB software configuration to what Texas SHOULD be, but when I set mine to what it should be, it'* an hour off (in my profile). Not sure what'* going on here. I wish I knew what the server time actually was.

For instance, when I set phpBB to GMT -6, and my profile to GMT -8, it says I'm an our later than I actually am. I've now set my profile to -9....need to know what other observations people make.

Use this to determine your GMT offset, and I'll check this post when I get to work, and make any adjustments to the phpBB configuration.

PHP can easy display the server time, here'* a code snippet;

print date("D dS M,Y h:i a");

Cheers,

Wren is playing with the clock so he can cheat and get in more posts.
