stime − set time
#define
_SVID_SOURCE /* glibc2 needs this */ 
#include <time.h>
int stime(time_t *t);
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 super user.
On success, zero is returned. On error, −1 is returned, and errno is set appropriately.

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