And, all appears good. So,
- Reference
IBM - Managing the Time Zone Variable for how to create a timezone string.
- Set the TZ variable in /etc/environment by hand.
- Reboot, or "export TZ=<timezone_string>"
- /usr/sbin/ntpdate -b <ntp server>
- "startsrc -s xntpd" or
- "startsrc -s xntpd -a "-x""
and give yourself a half-hour coffee break. Check and verify xntpd is still running, and you're good to go.
