Hi,
To get my system on time, I usually issue these two commands:
# ntpdate de.pool.ntp.org # hwclock -w
And when I want this to be done on startup, I put the two lines in rc.local.
I wonder if this is an orthodox way to do things. Or is there something more appropriate?
Choose a couple publically available time servers, I believe a link was posted on this thread, and set them in /etc/ntp.conf.
I suppose with 'hwclock -w' that your bios clock is set to localtime and your system dual boots? If that is the case then set UTC=false in /etc/sysconfig/clock.
