I recently upgraded an application from postgresql 7.4.2 to 7.4.5, and now I am having 
timezone nightmares.

I checked on the old server, and found that in the postgresql.conf, the timezone was 
set for unknown. The timezone portion of the records was being set to GMT+06 ( for 
reference, I am in GMT-06 ). Now, on the old server, when i pulled data, the dates 
came back correctly. 

However, on the new server, I am getting dates that adjust properly for the timezone 
in the record, which means that my records show as having been entered a day before, 
which is killing my users. Can someone help me understand the timezone nightmare, and 
how i can fix my records so that they appear on the correct day?

I am using the exact same jdbc library to connect to both servers, and my setup is:

OLD Setup                       
Redhat 9 
Postgres 7.4.2 (compiled from source)

NEW Setup
Redhat 3 Enterprise
Postgres 7.4.5 (compiled from source)


Thanks,
