Set your clock
As of Wolvix 1.1.0 the Wolvix Control Panel has a tool for configuring the clock, use that instead of this guide.
Install timeconfig
su # Enter Password
slapt-get --update
slapt-get --install glibc-zoneinfo
Run timeconfig
You may do this as a user
Sync
Install ntp
Set time
use ntpdate
As root :
ntpdate ntp.nasa.gov # use any server you wish
Set time at boot
Use ntpdate at boot and then ntpd
Become root, open /etc/rc.d/rc.local for editing
Add these lines at the end :
/usr/sbin/ntpdate ntp.nasa.gov #Use any server you wish
/usr/sbin/ntpd &
Sample /etc/ntp.conf
# Sample /etc/ntp.conf: Configuration file for ntpd.
#
# Undisciplined Local Clock. This is a fake driver intended for backup
# and when no outside source of synchronized time is available. The
# default stratum is usually 3, but in this case we elect to use stratum
# 0. Since the server line does not have the prefer keyword, this driver
# is never used for synchronization, unless no other other
# synchronization source is available. In case the local host is
# controlled by some external source, such as an external oscillator or
# another protocol, the prefer keyword would cause the local host to
# disregard all other synchronization sources, unless the kernel
# modifications are in use and declare an unsynchronized condition.

# Drift file. Put this in a directory which the daemon can write to.
# No symbolic links allowed, either, since the daemon updates the file
# by creating a temporary in the same directory and then rename()'ing
# it to the file.

#
# Keys file. If you want to diddle your server at run time, make a
# keys file (mode 600 for sure) and define the key number to be
# used for making requests.
# PLEASE DO NOT USE THE DEFAULT VALUES HERE. Pick your own, or remote
# systems might be able to reset your clock at will.

# Trust ourselves. :-)
