Will have to read the man date page more thoroughly. It sounds to me as if your bios or CMOS clock is set to wall-clock time, which is the norm for windows systems, rather than to UCT, which is the norm for Unix systems. We can also deduce that you are probably located on the US East coast... Since the system clock is set =66rom the bios clock at reboot time, this explains the observed symptoms. You can fix this behavoiur using /usr/sbin/tzsetup -- the first dialog asks: Is this machines CMOS clock set to UTC? If your machine is dedicated to FreeBSD you should answer 'Yes'. If you have a Windows partition on the machine that you sometimes boot into, you should answer 'No'. Then go through and choose an appropriate timezone for your machine. If you answer 'No' to that question, a zero-length file /etc/wall_cmos_clock will be created, which cues the system to account for the difference between wall-clock and UCT when referring to the CMOS clock. Otherwise, you should go into your system BIOS and set the clock to the correct UCT time.
