Now check your time and reset it if necessary.

If you are on the net and have ntpdate installed, you can do a :

# ntpdate timex.cs.columbia.edu

and that will get you set against a time server.

Afterwards, do a :

hwclock --systohc

And that will set the cmos clock on the motherboard so that it now has the
correct time also.
