Full Discussion: Changing date time will cause the X11 restart
Operating Systems SCO Changing date time will cause the X11 restart Post 302935540 by dannychan on Tuesday 17th of February 2015 11:09:13 AM

Thanks for all replies!

There are 4 sessions in the SCO Unix, I changed the date time in any session using "date -t xxxxxxxxxx "

Then the session with X11 desktop will be restarted to the scologin screen. Only have this problem if changed to future date time (even 1 or 2 days forward), but no problem if I changed to past date time.

It seems relate to dispaly of X11 because no problem in other sessions of no X11. I really want to fix this problem because I need X11, is there any setting I can configure? something expire? any workaround?

Thanks!
