I just like it when people do not focus on a specific question on
mine...Now...ONCE AGAIN...

PLEASE answer this question for me?

1. Suppose I were to install Linux or FreeBSD again and during the
installation it
will ask me if I want to set my Hardware Clock to UTC or LOCAL....If I
select UTC, will it automatically set CMOS or Hardware Clock to UTC
once the installation is completed?

I have never installed any of the BSD, so I can't answer that. The recent distributions/releases of Linux that I have installed (FedoraCore and SUSE) both has if I want the CMOS clock set to UTC or Local time.



2. Or, is there a command to set the CMOS clock to UTC one inside of
Linux or FreeBSD? But I need to know the command for setting the
RTC/CMOS clock similar the way Solaris does below..

I'm not sure. I know that if I shutdown Linux cleanly it will sync the CMOS clock with the time that it has been keeping. I use ntp to sync time with atomic clocks every hour, so it does not loose/gain that much time.


Because I know that in Solaris, there is this command to tell Solaris
to use the CMOS/RTC clock in UTC.

rtc -c -z UTC
