Dear Folks!

Does anyone out there know how the Year 2000 problem might impact UNIX
systems? I'm talking about the representation of years as 2 digits.
This occurs on some systems (eg MVS), but I was wondering if any
problems will occur on UNIX as well. I am not a UNIX user myself, so I
was hoping someone who knows UNIX can enlighten me.

Thanks a lot,

Simon Buehring.
