NAME
       stime - set time

SYNOPSIS
       #define _SVID_SOURCE /* glibc2 needs this */
       #include <time.h>

       int stime(time_t *t);

DESCRIPTION
       stime()	sets the system's idea of the time and date.  Time, pointed to
       by t, is measured  in  seconds  from  00:00:00  GMT  January  1,	 1970.
       stime() may only be executed by the superuser.

RETURN VALUE
       On  success,  zero is returned.	On error, -1 is returned, and errno is
       set appropriately.

ERRORS
       EFAULT Error in getting information from user space.

       EPERM  The calling process has insufficient privilege.  Under Linux the
	      CAP_SYS_TIME privilege is required.

CONFORMING TO
       SVr4.

NOTES
       Under  glibc2,  <time.h> only provides a prototype when _SVID_SOURCE is
       defined.
