Linux assumes that the TOD is GMT/CUT, but you have your machine's TOD set to local time. You will have to adjust Linux's timezone to account for the difference. It is far better to have the machine TOD set to GMT and use the standard timezone offsets in each of your operating systems. There may be cases where the host must generate GMT. If you lie to the host about the TOD, it will not be able to compute GMT correctly, inserting your local time instead.
