Incorect show time

In computer from IceWM clock is 12:27, but real time is in Vilnius 19:27.
My /etc/rc.conf:

.
.
.

LOCALE=lt_LT.UTF8
HARDWARECLOCK="localtime"
TIMEZONE=Europe/Vilnius
KEYMAP=lt
CONSOLEFONT=
CONSOLEMAP=
USECOLOR="yes"

.
.
.

Then I have Ubuntu, then, if I good remeber, time show normal.

Re: Incorect show time

You can adjust the time using 'time', and/or keep it in sync with ntp. I remember having to update the time after switching timezones with rc.conf updated.

Re: Incorect show time

does "hwclock --utc" show the correct time ?
If so you need to have HARDWARECLOCK="UTC" rather.

Edit : Nevermind, I don't think that would explain a 7 hours difference, only a 2 or 3 hours one..
