Hi folks,
I have a new RHEL 5.4 server which is 5 hrs behind Eastern Standard
Time. following is what I have done and nothing seems to fix the
problem.
1. Set time and date from BIOS setup and rebooted the server.
2. cat /etc/sysconfig/clock
ZONE="America/Toronto"
UTC=true
ARC=false
3. The ntp.conf file and ntpservers files were copied from another
server which is exactly the same hardware-wise. That other server has
the correct time/date.
4. a) cd /usr/share/zoneinfo/Canada
b) cp -p Pacific /etc/localtime;
c) date;
Tue Dec 1 07:29:11 PST 2009 <== the time changed BUT 5 hrs
behind actual clock
e) cp -p Eastern /etc/localtime;
f) date;
Tue Dec 1 10:30:15 EST 2009 <== the time changed
BUT 5 hrs behind actual current time from another server
which is showing
Tue Dec 1 15:31:23 EST 2009
Any idea what is causing the clock to be 5 hrs behind? TIA for your help.
Regards,
Win
