To set the DOS clock, you have to be in DOS or in the BIOS setup or in
OI. To set the OI clock, you have to be in OI.
However, it sounds as if only your timezone is wrong. What does the
date command, with no options, say for your time zone? The hardware
clock does not have a time zone. You can set it to anything you like
in OI. This is normally done during installation. The easy way to
change the OI time zone is with the rtc command, like this:
# rtc -z zone-name
Check the man page for rtc for details. You can also look at the
file /etc/rtc_config for current time zone settings. If you change
the time zone with rtc, you should reboot immediately.
