wrong "connected since" time in Server

[dremwilly]

Hi,
we use the Access Server version 1.8.3 on a Debian based system. Everthink works fine but the Server show me always a wrong connection time:
on the Current user list on the WEB page of the server:
Connected Since Sat Sep 10 08:11:57 2011

and the Client (on MAC/Windows/Linux) show the right time:
verbunden: Samstag, 10. September 2011 10:11:59

any idea? The date/time of the Server and Clients are OK (same time zone - time sync with ntp)
new info:
looks like a 2 hour offset after install the virtual network adapter?!?

here what i found inside the log file:
the time changed after this line (-2hours)

I also have this issue with time discrepancy. All devices on our network sync to the same time source and all devices have the same time. Even when I login via CLI to the OVPNAS server, the time is correct. However, the "connected since" time is different by four hours. Where does this time setting come from?

Has anybody an answer to this problem? I to have the same issue with an approx +9 hour .
We are currently @ Openvpn 1.8.0 on Centos 5.6. The access server currently sync's NTP every 2min.
