I have had the same problem with SuSE 9.0. It seems that no matter I how I set "localtime" and set the time via netdate on the internet at bootup it always goes to UTC time. So, if I reboot several times the "date" becomes days behind.
I have wriiten SuSE's Support about this issue and NO HELP! And this may be my last SuSE version. On 9.0 I have had more problems than on any other SuSE distros. Like "time" and my Palm device not being seen. However, hwinfo, /proc and "lsusb" does see it
I have written to SuSe help as well, so I'll wait and see what comes out of it. I'm still confused by this "English sentence": In order to maintain the time as precise as possible, this procedure shall be repeated several times the week after at the soonest. I presume they mean that I have to do the same thing ( what was suggested on their help page) several times this week and ASAP. And I also presume that when I do this it will make changes to /etc/adjtime. But what will happen if I reboot several times in that week? I'm not to worried about it , to be honest. I just brought it up because of the bad English translation. -- Greetings from /bill at 169 west , 19 south. Disclaimer: Any errors in spelling, tact, or fact are transmission errors."
