Sorry about the upcoming 'novice' questions, but here goes:
1 - I am trying to get the time set correctly. I have used the date
command to set it. Each time I do, it stays correct until I reboot
at which time the time is shifted ahead by an hour. I then found the
localtime link, which appeared to be pointing to the currect timezone,
so I changed that to Eastern. Now it is off by 4 hours. If I set it
to 3 am, and reboot. It now says it's 7.
2 - I am trying to configure com1 to 9600, 7E1. How would I do this? I
have looked at stty in the man pages, and tried a number of things, but
am now, totally confused.
Thanks ALOT for the help.
