Re: fedora time bug

Jason,
If you are using Windows, make sure UTC is uncheck and select the 
correct timezone (any CST  - central  standard timezone will  do). 
Under "Network Time Protocol" tab  check:
    [x] Enable Network Time Protocol
  
Further down, click on "Show advanced options" and check only the top 
option:
      [x] Synchronize system clock before starting service
      [ ] use local time source

Bring up the "Terminal" to restart the NTP service under the command prompt:
   /etc/init.d/ntpd restart
   # NOTE: this is redundant but, it will test whether your time will 
remain on time upon reboot.
