Yes, I have had the same problems but no solution has been offered yet, nor have I been able to find one on the boards. I also found that if I selected the time server option,  I ended up just receiving error messages, so I would say to avoid that.

Time server has worked perfectly for me... I think you has made a wrong conf.
Try time.nist.gov (I think)

Set your BIOS clock to UTC Time (Greenich Mean Time) and within the e-smith-manager select your local time and the proper timezone for your country.
