Nope, not dual booting, see below. :|


It could be that the virtual machine is giving
FreeBSD the time in
UTC, not your local timezone. Try changing the
timezone options
(you can use sysinstall -> Configue -> Time Zone and
choosing yes)

Peter,
I'll give that a shot and see what happens. It
certainly is mucking things up, that's for sure, poor
cron. :(

Although the host clock is correct so I just don't get
it. Perhaps just not run ntpd and see what happens.
I'll try that the next day.
