System clock not getting saved?

[Robert Goley]

I have has some del server I had to add the --directisa option to the hwclock 
command that saves the system clock to the hardware clock on reboot.  One was 
so bad I ran the command from cron every hour on the hour.  The drift was 
horrible on that server.
