Internally, UNIX keeps UTC (GMT) time. Microsoft and other PC environments keep local time. In order not to have to reset the system clock when multibooting, you start adjkerntz, which ADjusts the KERNel Time Zone. If you're only running FreeBSD, like you should be, then you can set the hardware (CMOS) clock to UTC and do without the adjkerntz process.
