sounds like one of them is set to use UTC and the other is not.

on Fedora, run the command (as root)

system-config-date

check the tab 'Date and Time', verify the time server, under 'Advanced
Options', you may want to uncheck the local time source

check the tab called 'Time Zone', change the time zone to whatever it
should be, check the option for 'system uses UTC clock'
