That IS strange. I've been using localtime on NT Servers and Workstations
for a while now without seeing this disparity. Do both machines have the
MKS Toolkit installed? Are you running the script from the command prompt
or ksh? If it's ksh, do you see the same thing if you run it from the
command prompt? I'm just shooting out ideas. I'm pretty much perplexed.
If you figure it out let us know, since this could potentially be a nasty
little problem for any of us.

Just doing a call to :
sub get_time {
($sec,$min,$hour,$mday,$mon,$year,$wday,$yday,$isdst) =
localtime(time - $diff);
$mon++;
} # end of get_time
where $diff equals zero.
If I type date at my ksh ( MKS Korn Shell) I get:
Sun Apr 21 07:58:25 PDT 2002
It is the same on both machines, but if I run the perl script on
both machines:

I figured Wags would have checked, but I just had to ask, because
sometimes
it's some little thing like that that ends up biting us in the butt.
BTW, I
should have been clearer, but what I was asking was if the machines were
set
to the same time zone in the time settings. It does appear that one
system
is giving out the GMT. Out of curiosity (and a desire to avoid as much
pain
in the future as possible), what are you doing that results in the
different
times? Is it a particular function or module?

I presume that you are checking these with how the
system clock is set on both?
you might want to check how they do with resolving
a) to GMT time
b) is there a ntp server around?
we ran into this with some java code on the offset issues
between NT and win2000....
it turned out that one system was handing out GMT time
as the default to the applications or some such...
