eventgen no producing data with current time stamps

Hi Splunk et al, I am working on using eventgen to use access and secure logs. My test/sample app works as I am seeing events in my data summary, but the timestamps are off. I am seeing the original date/time of the timestamps in my sample log; and not events with current dates and times. How do I fix that? Thanks, Andrew ps.. below is my code from my eventgen.conf in my sample app [www1access.log] index = access outputMode = modinput sourcetype = andrew_access source = www1access.log interval = 300 earliest=now latest=now maxIntervalsBeforeFlush = 1 host = www5
