My clock is supposedly set to UTC. When I originally installed, it wasn't, and there was no documentation for changing it, but I figured that I needed to add a -u to the appropriate init script. Here then is /etc/init.d/hwclock.sh: GMT=-u # # Set and adjust the CMOS clock. # if [ ! -f /etc/adjtime ] then echo "0.0 0 0.0" > /etc/adjtime fi if [ -x /sbin/hwclock ] then [ "$GMT" = "-u" ] && GMT="--utc" hwclock --adjust $GMT hwclock --hctosys $GMT else [ "$GMT" = "--utc" ] && GMT="-u" clock -a $GMT fi # # Now that /usr/lib/zoneinfo should be available, # announce the local time. # if [ "$VERBOSE" != no ] then echo echo "Local time: `date`" echo fi > Mine is set to UTC. > > -- > Nathan Norman > MidcoNet - 410 South Phillips Avenue - Sioux Falls, SD 57104 Cool; my uncle lives just outside Sioux Falls and works there.
