Please boot into debug mode. Can you tell me what date says? It should in UTC and hence you need to convert your time.
Also tell me the output of cat /etc/crontab
Thanks,

There is also a boot option for time zone AFAIK. On 27. jan. 2012 08:28, "Kai Hendry" <hen... @webconverger.com> wrote:

Also output from: grep -i cron /var/log/syslog
Can be useful in debugging syntax errors in the crontab.

Quite right. :) I just tried appending timezone=Asia/Tokyo to the boot cmdline and it worked.
ftp://ftp.iana.org/tz/data/zone.tab is the authoritative TZ list
Oh btw, instead of `shutdown -h now` you an use `halt`
00 23 * * * root halt
Next this info should be on the wiki somewhere.

There's your error. It should read "shutdown". -- Regards, Steve

That works for me:
00 22 * * * root halt
i have set the timezone=Europe/Ljubljana, and the time is ok.
In the crontab is set to shutdown at 22:00, but system shutdown 1 hour
later at 23:00?
Regards,
Rok
