Changes in the future .. or living in the past / 2017-05-10

Interesting error message today:

Jan  1 01:01:02 ritchie CRON[1834]: pam_unix(cron:account): account koos has password changed in future

But it is caused by the system realtimeclock being completely wrong and assuming the date is 1 January 1990 or something. It probably needs a new battery. Or maybe a whole new system, this is from the system ritchie that started life as the wardriving box which was bought in 2008.
