Question "man date" command does not work
Hi there

I'm logged in as root on a UNIX Spark 10 using a SSH client.

I notice that the time on the machine is wrong and I type "man date" in order to receive the options how to change this.

When typing "man date" and hitting Enter I get the message "No manual entry for date"

Why? Am I doing something wrong? In need of assistance!

Thanks!

Yours sincerely,

aptit

The man pages consume disk space. It sounds like either they weren't installed or were removed to make space. If they exist, they should be in /usr/man. Look in that directory to see if they are installed.
