-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I'm going to guess that what is happening is that your time zone is set correctly, and your hardware clock is set to local time instead of GMT, but the system thinks your clock is set to GMT, and adjusts for the difference when you boot up. If your time zone is in fact set correctly, and your hardware clock is set to local time, then do the following: 1. Open /etc/default/rcS in your preferred editor. 2. Find the line that says UTC=yes , and edit it to say UTC=no , and save your changes. Then, you need to set your clock to your current time. To do this, have a look at the date(1) manual page. Off the top of my head, date hhmmss should work, where hh is hour, mm is minute, and ss is seconds, which I usually set in the 24-hour format, where 13:45 is 1:45 P.M. However, I have to look up the syntax in the man page when I do this, so since it's off the top of my head, I stand to be corrected, and don't take my word on the right way to do it, read the man page. Hth. Greg P.S., I'm still assuming you're using debian. If you aren't, then either find out how to make the rcS change in your distro, or tell us what your distro is, so someone familiar with your distro can give you the correct instructions.
