ntpd has NOTHING, repeat NOTHING, to do with daylight savings time! Daylight savings time is a figment of your imagination. It is a common hallucination but still a hallucination. NTP deals ONLY in UTC (formerly known as Greenwich, or GMT). Local time is calculated by the operating system using the rules for your local area. The politicians just love to change the rules every year or so, so be sure you have the correct rules for THIS year and the place where you live! <snip> _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ntp.org/mailman/listinfo/questions
