[TriLUG] NTP time offset

i just built a RH8 box and set up the NTP daemon to sync with clock1.unc.edu, 
but the time that gets set is exactly two hours off (it sets the time to be 
9:14:06 when it is actually 11:14:06).  there is no clock adjustment in the 
bios (it's an older compaq server with that annoying "put the bios files on 
the hard disk" setup).  and i can't get redhat-config-time to run, it errors 
out:

[root at holly root]# redhat-config-time
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/redhat-config-date/redhat-config-date.py", line 35, in ?
    mainWindow.mainWindow().stand_alone()
  File "/usr/share/redhat-config-date/mainWindow.py", line 181, in __init__
    self.timezonePage = timezone_gui.timezonePage()
  File "/usr/share/redhat-config-date/timezone_gui.py", line 50, in __init__
    self.tz = TimezoneMap(zonetab, self.default, map=path)
  File "/usr/share/redhat-config-date/timezone_map_gui.py", line 139, in 
__init__
    self.setCurrent(self.currentEntry)
  File "/usr/share/redhat-config-date/timezone_map_gui.py", line 180, in 
setCurrent
    self.markers[self.currentEntry.tz].hide()
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'tz'

any suggestions?
