Hi, Can we display year in log files timestamp? We are being audited and the auditor wants to know when we apply certain patches. yum.log shows it, but it doesn't have the year. I can argue based on common sense, but it would be much nicer if the year is there. Example: Apr 12 11:41:25 Updated: krb5-libs-1.6.1-55.el5_6.1.i386 Apr 12 11:41:27 Updated: openssl-0.9.8e-12.el5_5.7.i686

That's why I can argue based on common sense, by comparing the CESA date and the occurance in the log file. But if there is year, I don't have to argue at all with the auditor.
