  Five days ago I queried what is the proper way to adjust time
on Apollo sr10.2/bsd4.3 one hour backwards without booting the machine.
Haven't got any replies, I guess it's the "date" command then, but...

  ...will someone mail me the description what "date -a" or "date -f"
mean, and what's the difference? My online man pages don't seem to know
about those options :-( (cannot find reference to those options from
the manuals (sr10.1) either--where should I look???)
