Your hardware clock is supposed to be at UTC? Check with 'grep CLOCK= /etc/conf.d/clock'. Your time zone is correctly set? Check with 'ls -l /etc/localtime'. If those are okay, do: rm /etc/adjtime hwclock --set --utc --date="2005-11-18 21:34" # example time hwclock --hctosys If your hardware clock must be at local time, then replace --utc with --localtime.
