Proxmox: Time incorrect

gjacobse

I recently noticed that the time is off on my Proxmox system. So, as I come here for most all things Linux, starting this so I can come back later should I forget or lose my documentation:

timedatectl
               Local time: Sat 2024-02-24 15:48:23 EST
           Universal time: Sat 2024-02-24 20:48:23 UTC
                 RTC time: Sat 2024-02-24 20:49:12
                Time zone: America/New_York (EST, -0500)
System clock synchronized: no
              NTP service: active
          RTC in local TZ: no

RTC appears to be correct, but the local time is not.

System time is generally viewed as UTC Time - which I can understand for standardization.
Will have to 'adjust' my expectations.
