Have you checked /etc/sysconfig/clock?

  How about /etc/adjtime?

bing!

# diff /etc/adjtime /mnt/ubuntu/etc/adjtime

UTC

appears that I need to have symmetry in either UTC or LOCAL


If the machine is always running Unix/Linux, then UTC is usually better. If you are also running MSWIN then you either need to use LOCAL or find the tweak someone posted ~1 week ago, that you can do to windows so it treats the hardware clock as UTC.

Hope this helps.
