 |
|
well when yesterday i finally fixed it and everything worked great, today it's even worse,
now my time is 6:40 pm, and computer clock showing 9:10pm.
I use ntp servers to sync the right time, but somehow it's not working, and yes /etc/localtime
point to my area.
what can be the problem? |

Not working as in it doesn't get set or as in it sets the wrong time?
I'd resync my time and if that was ok, set the hwclock to it too. Then add these commands in a cron job. (I have "rdate -s time.nist.gov && hwclock --systohc" executed weekly) |

you have to emerge rdate. 
If it's setting the wrong time, recheck your link. And with rdate, you can check which time it would set your time to (rdate time.server.addy). |
