Yes, I think that is the problem, I had to set the BIOS clock several hours ahead of the actual time to get it right (after having copied the /etc/localtime file). But I'd really like to have each node set its time to the same as the server when it boots. To make sure it's always the same when I need it. I don't care if the time's not right, just that they're the same.
