Duplicate of bug #37485. I believe the user is setup with an incorrect timezone. I recently (Sept 7th) realized I have this same problem, and I'm currently running a testcase to prove/disprove the solution. I have been using GMT -0500 when I should have been at -0600 (Dallas) all along. FYI- <pasted from http://www.samag.com/quest/archive/2001/0248.htm> This is a problem with the iputils-20001110-1 package -- specifically the pr_pack routine in ping.c (you'll even notice you get that error while pinging localhost). Updating (upgrading) the package will resolve the problem. updating (upgrading) to iputils-20001110-5 did not correct my problem... but here's what did: 1. Selected my favorite package manager 2. Uninstall iputils-20001110-5 3. Download iputils-20000418-6 (ftp.rpmfind.net/linux/redhat/7.0/en/os/i386/RedHat/RPMS/) 4. rpm -ivh iputils-20000418-6.i386.rpm and everything works just fine once again. :) |
