We have your JRE 1.1.7 ("Java") on Linux Red Hat 5.2 ("box"). The box
is apparently using Central Time Zone, currently in Daylight, because
the output of the 'date' utility has CDT as the time zone. However, in
Java the Timezone.getDefault() returns "EDT", or Eastern Time Zone in
Daylight. We can set the Time Zone using -Duser.timezone=CST, and then
Java will use this time zone.

What is your Java using to determine that it is in the Eastern Time
Zone? or does it not 'ask' Linux and just always uses "Eastern"?

BTW, the TZ variable is not set to anything.

Thank you,
Dennis
