Mine shows: Local time: Wed 2024-03-06 12:09:44 EST Universal time: Wed 2024-03-06 17:09:44 UTC RTC time: Wed 2024-03-06 17:20:53 Time zone: America/New_York (EST, -0500) Network time on: yes NTP synchronized: no RTC in local TZ: no How do I get the RTC to agree with the right time? I don't reboot this often, but when I do the time displayed on the onscreen clock is typically off by several minutes. -- Member of the toughest, meanest, deadliest, most unrelenting -- and ablest -- form of life in this section of space, a critter that can be killed but can't be tamed. --Robert A.
