I am running debian. Sometime in the past month, when I received a kernel upgrade and also a tzdata upgrade, I noticed that the time was wrong on my system.
Maybe have a look at man timedatectl and see if any applies?
Thanks. I eventually got it to work without issue. There were a couple of tzdata updates real close together. One machine that I had not kept as up-to-date pulled them both down in one update sequence, installing one after the other, and didn't have the issue. <shrugs>
Part of my issue was my confusion re: living in an area that I think of as being GMT-5. For whatever reason, selecting "GMT-5" set it *ahead* of GMT
by 5 hours. Selecting "GMT+5" got me behind 5 hours like I should be.
I will still check that man page out for future reference, if nothing else.
on edit: I have a new friend in "timedatectl status". :D Thanks!
