I had a problem at first getting the correct time, but I finally got it to
work.  I set my system clock to GMT, and linked /etc/localtime to the correct
timezone (in my case, /usr/share/zoneinfo/US/Central).  Of course, now my DOS
programs are a few hours off, but at least I get the correct time when I log
onto my 386BSD system.
