I already tried, and I believe I have an account there. But I dont use
it regualrily and it seems like I have forgotten the passwd. Anyway it
seems like the way then to recover or get a new password does not work 
properly.

And then to something constructive: in DrakX there is already code to
set up time zone and also ntpd service,  at the overview point after
installation, so code could be taken from  there. You need to address
firewall problems such as opening for the NTP port.

One more observation: I would like that there be consistency between
what is done in installation, and then what can be done lateron via mcc. 
One good check point is that what is done in the Overview (I think it is
called that - in Danish "oversigt") point in DrakX is also doable in
mcc, and vice versa. Some of the programs there are even the same. 
Much of the functionality is the same. Why keep two sets of programs for
the same functionality?

best regards
