if there is a need to synchronise the system clock manually, it can be a straight forward thing

service ntpd stop
ntpdate 0.rhel.pool.ntp.org
service ntpd start

some of the files of interest:

/etc/sysconfig/clock
/usr/share/zoneinfo

    No need to stop ntpd service, just use ntpdate -u 0.rhel.pool.ntp.org
    Cheers.
