On boot, Linux sets its system clock from the hardware clock. Linux can interpret the time on the hardware clock as local time or universal time. If this is set incorrectly, you can get the problem you are talking about. see
man hwclock

Hi all,

I have noticed that no matter how many times I reset the
date and time on my RH8 server, it keeps falling out of
synch, and jumps ahead by about 1 hour. It looks like it
has something to do with the time zone, but during the
installation I made sure to choose the correct country and
location.

1) How do I configure my RH8 machine to synch itself
    according to an atomic clock on the WWW?

2) How do you change the time zone on a Linux server
    (AFTER the installation)

Thanks, Jason
