different time settings in different directories

Chazvaz · #1 (**permalink**) 4 Weeks Ago

When I create files (using vi) the creation date/time (ls -l) is recorded differently in different directories. There is a one-hour difference between a file created now in /usr2 and /root. In both directories, the date command shows the same (correct) date/time. But ceation date/time of a file is different in each directory

How is this possible and how can I fix it?

One of the directories might be NFS mounted from a different host that has an incorrect system clock.
