Hello Thomas,
My take is: hwclock + timezone correction => local time.
So, setting hwclock to UTC +0.00 will give you right local time,
if your timezone is correct.
hwclock's following option might help you sync better, I guess:
--hctosys : set system time from hw clock
--systohc : set hw clock to cur sys time
Let us know if it helped.
Regards,
Atul T

The nice thing about Windows is - It does not just crash,
It displays a dialog box and lets you press 'OK' first.

Thanks for your pointer, Oleg.
I chose tzselect and then 2 for Americas and 36 for Peru. Then I get this here:
Therefore TZ='America/Lima' will be used.
Local time is now: Tue Oct 3 03:39:53 PET 2006.
Universal Time is now: Tue Oct 3 08:39:53 UTC 2006.
Is the above information OK?
And the information is not ok. Local time is actually 10:39 as indicated by
hwclock
Tue 03 Oct 2006 10:39:53 AM PET -0.207755 seconds
Any other pointers?
