Apparently, setting /etc/timezone to: TZ=PST8PDT and installing the correct zoneinfo/PST8PDT file as /etc/localtime is not enough to get the date command to work correctly: # date Tue Nov 13 19:09:48 ??? 2001 # date +%Z ??? # echo $TZ PST8PDT If I rdate, I get a UTC time back from a system that I know responds with a PST8PDT time because it works with Oxygen-051401 and Dachstein. #rdate -p 10.1.1.1 Wed Nov 14 03:09:55 2001 # hwclock --show Tue Nov 13 19:10:05 2001 -0.121707 seconds Where do I start? I did not run hwclock.sh for this. I noticed that hwclock.sh was an older version than the one David and I debugged, because it leaves GMT=0 set and that corrupts the hwclock command when this is called: hwclock --systohc $GMT Thanks, Matthew _______________________________________________ Leaf-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-devel
