[Xymon] British Summertime

[Neil Simmonds]

We've got a strange issue occurring since yesterday morning.

 

We monitor a file to make sure it has been updated in the last 32
minutes but it's currently flagging red claiming the file was last
modified 4294964222 seconds ago (just over 136 years).

 

I can only assume that this has been caused by the clock change from GMT
to BST and I suspect that as the client is Windows and the server is
Linux that the server is using UTC for the calculation.

 

Has anyone seen this behaviour and more importantly, does anyone know
how to fix it?

 

I've looked through man pages for analysis.cfg, bbwin.cfg and
xymonserver.cfg but can't see anything that might help.
