Re: correct way to set timezone & clock/date?

Try tailing /var/log/messages (you said this was fedora, right?) when
you start up the ntp daemon. It can take a while (>1 minute
sometimes) for the time servers to synchronize, but you should see
some log activity during that time to show you that it's working.
