I've noticed this as well. I have configured cron to periodically use ntpdate
to update my system time from an NTP server. This sets my clock to UTC, which
is supposed to be translated by the time zone settings so that the display is
correct. However, I have found that this is not the case. I have managed to
get the time translated correctly in BASH and in X (using environment
variables), but cron is still on UTC. I have tried placing my time zone
environment variable in /etc/profile, but this does nothing.
