Hi Dimitris,

As far as I can tell, the clocks on forge and orwell (the web server and
the NFS server) are fine to within a minute or so.  They're both running
ntpd so they should stay pretty close.  Don't know why you're seeing
things off by an hour...

And please don't pay too much attention to the times in the on-line cvs
code browser at:

  http://mitgcm.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/MITgcm/

since its often inaccurate.  When we have some spare time we should
replace our ViewCVS install with the newer and supposedly nicer ViewVC.

Ed
