Hi Andreas,

I'm using the latest Centos which uses Redhat.

# cat /etc/sysconfig/clock
ZONE="Africa/Johannesburg"
UTC=true
ARC=false

We set UCT to true as show above in /etc/sysconfig/clock and rebooted the
server and still %t gives the time at UTC and not UTC +2 when getting back a
status=8 (accepted from the SMS Provider) from Kannel.

The options we are using when sending the SMSs are:
status=%d&smsc=%i&timeDate=%t&destination=%p&delivInfo=%a&source=%P&msgid=%k

When compiling Kannel we used --disable-localtime

Do you have any further suggestions? and thanks for all the great work you
are doing with Kannel.
