[gentoo-user] Again a small embedded arch problem with Gentoo

[gentoo-user] Again a small embedded arch problem with Gentoo

[Meino.Cramer]

Hi,

two "identical" (better read: expected to be identical... ;) Arietta
G25 tiny embedded systems have a Gentoo installed each. Both are
updated always at the same time.
On both I copied the same source of VIM (git repo) and tried to
update the local repo than.

One said:
Arietta G25 B:CVS-Archive/VIM>./update.sh 
Already up-to-date.

(ok, nice and fine)

but the other said:
fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/vim/vim.git/': SSL certificate problem: certificate has expired
[1]    1983 exit 1     ./update.sh

a 'ping' does not show any problems though (so this is no errornous
error message). 

Again: Both are handled and exspected to be identical.

But they behave differently.

What happens, which makes them different by using the same command
sequences?

What needs to be done to fix the certificate problem?
(they were updates just half an hour before).

Thank you very much in advance for any help!
Best regards,
Meino

Just a quick suggestion - you should use ansible or puppet to keep them 
in sync.

What is the date on the board that failed? The only thing I can think of 
is that
the date is incorrect, and far enough off to cause an SSL error.

Hi Alec,

oh YEAH! Thats's it! The ntp-sync command seems to have failed...
The system time said 19.Oct.2015 (which is not the usual 1.1.1970)
I resynced the time and and the problem is gone!
Thanks! :)

Best regards,
