Where can I find something that definitively and correctly tells me how
to get my Linux 7.2 system to return the correct results when I try the
following commands:
1. date
2. date -u
The BIOS clock is running on local time (US Mountain time).
According to the documentation I have read, the correct configuration
is to have /etc/localtime be set to /usr/share/zoneinfo/US/Mountain
and to have the following contents of /etc/sysconfig/clock:
ARC=false
UTC=false
Zone=America/Denver
This causes "date" to respond correctly, and the clock on the screen to
display the correct time, but "date -u" gives the wrong time.
I've fiddled around with these files, but nothing I've tried has been
the magic combination.
