Hi Jim:
We are starting httpd web server as root, then spawn httpd as www. They all
have timezone setup as CDT. I checked the date from different shell. They are
all correct. I have /etc/localtime pointing to /usr/share/zoneinfo/US/Central.
I don't know why it uses raw clock. Thank you very much.
Steven.
