TimeZone Problem with phpBB

My server thinks it's tomorrow afternoon

Strange one this. Server was rebooted by host this afternoon (scheduled upgrade) and the server came back online thinking it was 24 hours later for some reason.

A few people (40 or so) have made posts on the forum (phpBB).

If I set the clock back to where it should be, none of those people are able to post again, as phpBB has a flood interval setting. They get told "you can't post again so soon after your last post".

I've tried setting the flood interval in phpBB to both "0" and "" (presumably "NULL") but it still won't have it.

I don't really want to leave the server a day ahead - any thoughts?

Thanks,

TJ

Had an idea - can CRON do maths?

I'm thinking if I can set a CRON job to roll back the time by 1 minute every minute for the next 1,440 minutes :-)

So essentially I get time to stand still for the next 24 hours.
