- Thread-topic: Changing the info in the sudoers file
I cannot use the internet for time, no connection. Sometimes the power goes
out and the time resets to 1969 and it needs to be changed. All the time
servers I have tried to use, routers and internal apple software, require a
connection to a time server to accurately provide the time. And if they
cannot see a valid time server, they won't give the time out.
