Geeze, this is very frustrating. :-) I rebooted and went into the BIOS. It was set to the correct time. During the boot process, a message comes up and says that the time has been adjusted. When it's finished, the system time is 4 hours behind. I immediately did tzsetup, told it that UTC was not set in the BIOS, then proceeded to select the appropriate timezone. I still get: #web date Mon Apr 3 08:46:13 EDT 2006 (Note, it's 12:46 pm when I ran this.) web# ntpdate 0.north-america.pool.ntp.org Looking for host 0.north-america.pool.ntp.org and service ntp host found : rrcs-24-123-214-97.central.biz.rr.com 3 Apr 08:54:32 ntpdate[1881]: step time server 24.123.214.97 offset 14443.665454 sec The offset even shows the 4 hours my machine is behind, but it doesn't set the time because the difference is too great. (I think) More thoughts?? :-) Thanks, Steve
