Make a visit to Charles site: 

http://lrp.steinkuehler.net/files/kernels/zoneinfo/

and grab the zone that is closest to your own location. Maybe PST8PDT?
Copy it over the /etc/localtime file on your E2B disk, don't forget to
back it up. Two servers that haven't failed me yet are 132.163.4.101,
132.163.4.102 - they're the first and second time servers in Boulder,
Colorado. Try issuing "rdate -s 132.163.4.101" in the console. If it
worked your in business. Look in your /etc/crontab and just insert
something like this:

# m h dom mon dow user  command
00 0,6,12,18    * * *   root    rdate -s 132.163.4.101

and it will sync your comp-clock every 6 hrs., round the clock.  :)

Now, Matt had a point about hibernation there...   ;-)
