I've also tried to get ntp to work, but it doesn't, even with the -g option 
(ntp won't adjust the time if the offset is more than a certain amount).
 

 Even 

 root@beaglebone:~# ntpdate -b -s -u pool.ntp.org

 dont work.



This does work for me, I don't use the -b, -s or -u options.  Are you sure 
your router or ISP isn't somehow blocking the NTP requests?

Try a couple of other NTP servers (as root):

ntpdate time.apple.com
ntpdate ntp.ubuntu.com

Yes!!! that was the problem!!... When I fail to ping from my desktop I 
realise that a firewall or sth was blocking my request. Although I have 
internet (web access) this kind of request are blocked.

I just finish my time config and download adafruit library, adafruit webIDE 
etc...

Thanks for your help!-

 If you're using Angstrom, then get the timestamp-service package.  It 
 should preserve the (approximate) clock time across power cycles.  The 
 clock time is saved at shutdown and reloaded at reboot.  This doesn't 
 account for time elapsed between shutdown and reboot, but it's usually much 
 better than starting from zero.

 Well, that!

ntpdate time.nist.gov

Should set the clock.  Note that although the BBB has an RTC, it has no 
battery, so it doesn't remember the time!
 

 Is any command where I can get my Distro version?


lsb_release -a

And you can also look at the contents of /etc/dogtag
