Mark,
add the following to your start up (assuming the machine has a 24/7
internet)
ntpdate ntp.pipex.net
This solved a similar problem that I had, what it does is synchronises the
computer's clock to ntp.pipex.net's which is a secondary time server, so the
time should be bang on. It might be worth cronning the taks for once a day
;-)
Regards,
IWD

Subject: [scottish] Linux time.
Hi Folks,
Can anyone help me with a problem that has been driving me crazy for the
last
few weeks?
Since we switched to BST, my linux time has somehow got an hour ahead.
I can chage the time by doing :-
date --set='-1 hour'
but, on the next re-boot the time reverts back to being an hour fast.
Can anyone tell me what is going on?
Thanks,
Mark.
