Is the hardware clock set to local time, or utc? What does /etc/sysconfig/clock contain? Here is what one looks like to Central time, and clock set to local time: ZONE="US/Central" UTC=false ARC=false And here is the same setup, but for the hardware clock set to UTC; UTC=true ARC=false Also check that /etc/localtime is correct for your time zone.
