Woody:
I just experienced this problem at work... yesterday as a matter of
fact...
In my experience (Caldera OpenLinux Base) it was a daemon loaded at
/etc/rc.d/init.d called ntp.
Once I took that out of the init.d, everything was fine. Everytime the
damned thing ran, it would set our clock to GMT. Same day, but wrong
time.
Hope this helps,
Dave
