[mod.computers.vax] Bad date/time on system startup

JM9W@TE.CC.CMU.EDU (Jim Murawski) (11/07/85)

	Quite a number of times in the past few weeks, when two of our
	VMS Vaxes have come up, the date/times have been in the future.
	One Vax, running VMS 3.7, has come up as 18-MAR-1986 each time it
	came up with a bad date;  the other, running VMS 4.2, has come up
	as 26-MAR-1986 each time it came up with a bad date.  Since one
	is running V3 and the other is running V4, it doesn't seem to be
	a V4 bug, but a hardware problem.  Two other VMS Vaxes, both running
	V3.7, haven't shown this behavior.  Has anyone else out there seen
	this behavior before, and if so, have you found a solution to it?
	Thanks for any information.
