Ever since April 6, our local WeBWorK system automatically moves the dates of homework sets one hour, There is an hour difference between the intended due date and the actual due date.

When tried to change the due date from the professor's page, it gave a successful message saying like:

"The new due date is now set to: 5/4/03 at 10:00 AM for all students ---------------------------------------------------------

The new answer date is now set to: 5/4/03 at 10:01 AM for all students"

But in the "do homework sets" page, due date is 11:00 AM.

Any suggestions on how to fixing it? The server clock works fine and it adjusted the time automatically on April 6. Thanks a lot.

I said something wrong. Our server did not adjust the time automatically. Our adminstrator somehow disabled the Network Time Protocol and so he adjusted the clock manually on Monday.

Now we just enabled it and the problem has been resolved.
