date -s

On a Rhat 7.1 the command :

date -s "2/13/2002 09:58"

was ran and after command was submitted, the Linux box disconnects from it's remote window manager.

Thanks for any info.

Did that result in setting the clock back? Going back in time was never something that *ix liked.

It seems like a problem with the X server (which is running on the remote machine).

Check the error logs it produces.

Error logs on the Linux side are under /var/log/Xerrors (I think), but I don't believe you will see anything in there since you were running the desktop remotely.
