If you have UTC true.. then you need to set the hardware clock to GMT. For
US/Central (GMT-6) if your localtime were, say, 12:00 then the hardware
clock should be 18:00. As far as why you're not getting the right dates on
stuff.. I'm sure it's something simple which someone will figure out. I
just wanted to note that the setup with the UTC and daylight
saving(s) time only really works when you have the hardware clock set to
GMT (GMT is neeto) :P
