Re: time problem....

try sudo date monthdayyeartime see if that works also check your /etc/rc.conf for either localtime or UTC

Re: time problem....

The date command sets the software clock. It should be synchronized back to the hardware clock when you shutdown your computer. To do this manually, execute the following command as root:

hwclock --systohc --utc

Note: The --utc option is to be used if your hardware clock is set to universal time zone (UTC/GMT), which is recommendable anyway.
