similar to: Timeserver sending wrong time to Windows Clients

I am having a terrible time getting the hardware clock, system clock and the time served to my winXX boxes to jive on my Mandrake 7.2/Samba 2.07 machine. I have my clock file, timezone and localtime links set to America/Chicago. No matter what I do, if I use UTC for my hwclock, my system clock on the Linux box is fine, but samba passes system time +6 hours to the windows clients. (Yes I know CST =

I don't think my original post made it, so here is a repost of my problem.

I never thought it would happen to me, but it did... I have read threads about slow copies from WinXX to Linux/Samba on the list in the past, but I don't recall a concise answer regarding what the cause was. THE PROBLEM: Trying to copy an 8 meg file from Win95 to my Linux/Samba box (named "Nemesis" - for good reason), the transfer speed slows to a crawl. The Win95 copy dialog box

Hi. I run peridocally (from cron) on all of my machines 30 * * * * root /sbin/hwclock --systohc All of those machines in question take their time via NTP from the same local server, and that server gets its time from a ntp pool. Now I had to reboot a couple of them two days ago and to my surprise all had problems with the time upon booting. Here are the important files: [root at XXXXXX ~]

Hello, I'm having a major problem with the timestamps in both the Icecast access.log and error.log. The timestamp on the logfiles themselves is accurate, but the logging of the various connections to my streams is in UTC. No matter how I try to configure the hwclock or the system clock, the log timestamp is always UTC, which is 8 hours ahead of my current time zone. I've even tried

Hello, I have a problem configuring the timezone on a CentOS 5.5 server. I would like the timezone to be Europe/Paris. I have followed the steps described here: http://www.wikihow.com/Change-the-Timezone-in-Linux I think I have changed the appropriate configuration files ( /etc/localtime, /etc/sysconfig/clock ), but the output of the ?date? command still indicates the timezone is EST.

Hi, the date jumps within 30 seconds to a wrong value. ntp service is stopped at the beginning. Whereas hwclock seems more precise.

Apologies for being late to the party with this... I finally found my old notes on this re: helping out a blind friend fix his centos box... log in as root cd /usr/share/timezone cd /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/ cp Los_Angeles /etc/localtime /usr/bin/rdate -s time.nist.gov /sbin/hwclock --systohc For more details, go to http://wiki.ehow.com/Change-the-Timezone-in-Linux - rh -- Robert

Hi CentOS 5.3 with latest updates. I have a problem with the time zone on dedicated server. I had to setup the timezone using system-config-date to "Europe/London" and "System clock uses UTC" == checked # date; date -u; hwclock --show; hwclock --show --utc; zdump /etc/localtime Thu May 7 21:29:47 GMT 2009 Thu May 7 21:29:47 UTC 2009 Thu 07 May 2009 09:29:48 PM GMT

hey list! having a slightly odd time issue on one host... can I get some help with this? This is the current time from a working system: Sun Apr 17 00:28:18 EDT 2011 However from the problem system this is the time: Sat Apr 16 20:30:01 EDT 2011 I have set the time zone as such: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 Apr 16 19:41 /etc/localtime -> /usr/share/zoneinfo/EST But when I run ntpdate

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? Niki Kovacs

I installed CentOS 5 on a server today (wiping clean the drive which had 4.4 on it). During installation I picked the correct timezone, location and all. Yet, upon booting the machine, it seems to think that it's 6 hours earlier than it really is. The BIOS has the correct time and date on it. /etc/locatime was originally what /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Denver would've

Hi, I had the following problem today. Because of a misconfigured network switch one system suddenly didn't have any network. After a reboot (with the network still unavailable) NTPD refused to start. Most likely because the initial ntpdate failed to work. I find this troubling, because when the network was restored, NTPD could have resumed working (like I'd expect from a true

Hello. I have a small network with a dialup connection to the internet. When the server is online to collect mail, etc I use ntpdate to synchronise it with a local timeserver. The windows machines on the network set their time using the timeserver in Samba with a "net time ..." bat file. This works well. I would like to synchronise the linux machines using the samba time server

Hi friends, I am running Nagios 2.7-1 on Centos 5.0 32-bit hosted on Vmware ESX 4.0. The issue I am seeing on the server is sometimes nagios is showing the below messages in /var/log/messages and as the system time gets changed some false alarms gets generated. I searched it on the google but I am not able to find the correct solution. I even posted on the nagios forum and they asked me to see
