Date / Time Data Type

I am converting from another database, where the line below was defined as a 'datetime'
datatype. Am trying to convert that data, and it is telling me that my default date is out of
range, and that I perhaps need to do a datestyle setting.
 
After looking at the docs, and even CAST, I still have not been able to figure out how to
set this up, other than just defining it as aa char(19) field.. Does anyone have any suggestions?
 
CREATE TABLE adns_neighbor_history (
 ifID mediumint(8) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
 updatedTime timestamp NOT NULL default '0000-00-00 00:00:00',  <------   rejected
 remoteNet char(15) default NULL,
 PRIMARY KEY  (ifID,updatedTime)
