Re: clock sync



WRONG !
Do not do this.

What you need to change is the format of the time saved in the CMOS clock.
It is defined somewhere in /etc/.
See man hwclock for info.
On redhat you would change in file /etc/sysconfig/clock the value
of UTC from "true" to "false".
I don't have a debian system at hand to check.
See the init scripts, where hwclock is called. There must be the definition
of UTC somewhere.
