Setting time

Post by Bryan88 »

Please forgive me for this stupid question. i am using AV Linux, when I installed it I must have used the "use network time" option. However I no longer have internet acces so now my time is always 2 hours behind. I have to reset it as root, but when I restart it is out again. So far as I know my timezone is set to Africa, which is right. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
