Hi guys,

I'm working with a dos application which requires that I change the date to pre y2k to set it up and then do maintenance. Then I can set the time back to normal. I've set
$_timemode = "bios"
in a custom dosemu.conf which I load at start.
When I type date 10/01/1999
it just repeats my current date.
Do I need to try to temporarily run dosemu2 through freedos to allow this behavior? I do know that dosemu allowed me to set time and date. What am I missing?
