ntpdate doesn't fix bogus times!
Okay, I'm completely lost on this one. I have one box that can't tell time
and I don't know what's the matter with it.
when UTC is around Thu Apr 8 02:16:20 UTC 2004, this machine reports:
# date -u && date
Wed Apr 7 22:16:37 UTC 2004
Wed Apr 7 18:16:37 EDT 2004
# hwclock --show --utc
Wed Apr 7 14:18:26 2004 -0.247566 seconds
(root) condor-dc01:/etc
# hwclock --show --localtime
Wed Apr 7 18:18:30 2004 -0.728123 seconds
Here are relevant time configuration snippets:
from /etc/default/rcS:
# Set UTC=yes if your system clock is set to UTC (GMT), and UTC=no if not.
UTC=yes
# l /etc/localtime
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root root 36 Apr 7 17:27 /etc/localtime -> /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/New_York
# l /etc/localtime
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root root 30 Apr 7 18:11 /etc/localtime -> /usr/share/zoneinfo/US/Eastern
# cat /etc/timezone
US/Eastern
Running '/etc/init.d/ntpdate start' does not fix the problem. Please help (and
cc: me on your reply, as I'm not subscribed)!
