I'm running FreeBSD 5.5. I'm in California and my hardware clock is set to UTC I believe (how to check if it's important?). Ever since the daylight saving time shift here in California a couple of weeks ago my clock has been late by one hour. For example right now it is 7:28 PM and my computer says: [EMAIL PROTECTED] date Tue Mar 18 18:28:08 PST 2008 I have NTP running and I verified that it works by setting the clock to be off by one hour and one minute (basically nudge the time by one minute) and the clock synchronizes itself to be accurate to the minute and second but off by one hour. Does anyone know how to fix this? Is there some sort of updated time zone data that I need? Thanks in advance.
Our server BIOS clocks are set to UTC. To ensure UTC time in FBSD, I've always removed the file /etc/localtime. FBSD will default to UTC if it can not find /etc/localtime (at least that's what I've witnessed since FBSD 5.5).
