.I have reset the date (using smit), but when I reboot, the clock is about
.five hours slow (I tried several times).  I am running AIX 3.1 rev 1.3,
.and I have also seen the problem on AIX 3.1 rev 1.2 (is there a standard

.When I set the date (using either smit or just date), it replies with:

.date: The time service is not available on your system.

.So, does anyone know how I can fix this?

I had a similar problem.  After the start of the new year, I found
that my machine's time was off by one second.  I (mistakingly, I
guess) attibuted to the leap second which was added by the time gods
this year.  :-)
