When we reboot our 11/780, the date and time always gets changed.
Sometimes it is only a few hours off, other times a few days, other times a
few months! Our maintenance people have replaced the clock module in the VAX,
but the symptom persists.  Their inclination is that it is a problem in how
4.2BSD reads the clock during the boot process.  Has anyone had this problem
and cured it?  If so, what did you do to fix it?  I do not normally read
this news group, so please respond directly to me.
Thanks.
