On EL3 the name was redhat-config-date ... it is system-config-date in
EL4.  If you have GUI insalled, right click on the clock and pick the
"Adjust Date & Time" option and click the "Network Time Protocol"
tab...enable NTP and add your server(s) to the box.

If you don't have GUI, Just add the name (or IP) of the server you want
to use in /etc/ntp.conf like this:

server clock1.redhat.com

then restart ntpd like this:

/etc/init.d/ntpd restart
