3274.0. "Diskmaster shows 99-DEC-9999 instead of 1-JAN-1990" by FSCORE::KAYE (He who dies with the most toys is dead) Mon Jan 01 1990 20:10

I have been running Superbase and when i backed up my files to a
floppy with Diskmaster i noticed that the date was 1 day in the
future. Well, yesterday, the future became 99-DEC-9999 99:99pm. In
fact even my Word Perfect files i edited today show this funny date.
If i do a LIST from CLI, i just get TODAY. MACHII shows the correct
date of 1-JAN-1990 as does preferences. Is this a bug with Diskmaster?
Anyone got any ideas?

	I must have missed this note on the first pass, so I apologize for delaying when I kenw the answer... The date bug is a known bug in DiskMaster. You should notify PP&S for an update, or abandon DiskMAster in favor of SID v1.06, like I did. I like SID much better, and the latest vewrsion (available on NORSE) seems to be compltely bug free.
