    Does anyone know of a good way to keep all
    the calendars on an apollo network in sync?
 
    I do not want to shut down a node to rest the
    onboard clock. I would like to, from one node,
    start a job that hops from node to node to
    set the clock to the correct time.
 
At sr10, you can reset the node time without shutting down.  If you don't
have sr10, you can't.  I think you can get a daemon that synchronizes
clocks for you.  If not, it would be pretty easy to write.  You need
one or more central nodes, preferably with a WWV clock, running a time
of day server.  There's an RFC out on this (don't know the number).
 
    There is nothing worse than seeing a network where
    one node thinks it is 8:00 am PST July 25, 1988
    and another thinks it is 9:00 pm PDT July 21, 1988.
 
The timezone is a little trickier.  It's stored in a completely separate
way.  Unfortunately, I think you still need to shut down to change the
timezone, even at sr10.  This is a lot better than Unix in the old days,
which required you to recompile all your programs to change the timezone.

Subject: Don't understand how objects are loaded into memory ...
Message-Id: <15689@shemp.CS.UCLA.EDU>
Sender: apollo-request@umix.cc.umich.edu

  Ok, I just don't understand what's going on here.  If I do an nm(1)
against an object, it tells me that the variable XXXfoo has been assigned
location 0.  When I start up dbx against the object (and run it telling
it to stop in main so I can look at things), dbx says that the address of
XXXfoo (&XXXfoo) is now 0xac5e0.  I can deal with that.  Things just get
mapping into memory when an object is loaded.  And when I use /com/debug
-smap, it tells me about this mapping.
 
  So that's cool.  Now I continue executing up to the fault in xmh that
I'm trying to track down.  Now when I ask it to print out the addresses
of variables, it gives me random values.  It's almost as if the debugger
itself has become corrupted.  The values aren't consistent in any way.
Two variables which used to be adjacent to each other are now indicated as
being 16Kb apart.
 
  The question that comes to my mind here is as follows: when I look at
the contents of the address first given for variable when I stopped it in
main, it has the right value at the fault, even though dbx is now telling
me that the variable has a different address.  I had thought that the
variable was getting trashed, but now it appears not.  Could it be that
the processes mapping is being corrupted?
 
  I guess my next attempt will be to try to cross process debug this so
that the debugger itself doesn't get clobbered.
