RTC & system time issue (3.3.6pre1)
« on: July 25, 2004, 12:56:29 pm »
Hi folks,

I stumbled over something odd. On my SL-5500Gs command line the command 'date' shows me e.g. "Sun Jul 25 16:47:59 UTC 2004", but I'm located in CEST (Central European Satndard Time). So the Opie Desktop gives me the right time. Just the system time is minus 2 hours. Now I wanted to tell my system that my RTC shows the time -2 hours, but the comand 'zic' was not found. Are there any other ways to do this? 'ntpdate' sets only Opies time correctly, system time is still -2 hours.
This is a bigger issue for me, because whenever a file is created it shows the wrong time. Or 'syslog' gives wrong times too. Or whatever is alos affected by a wrong system time. Any ideas, recommendations or whatever...?

Thanks,

Hmm, ok. Maybe the other way. How can I set the system time and Opies time to the same value? 'ntpdate' sets only Opies time.
