setting clock to EDT

2000-08-21 Thread John Anderson 
This sounds stupid, but when I installed Debian I selected EST vs. EDT.  I
have tried using the date command with no success.  Any suggestions?

run tzconfig as root, choose EST5EDT.  OR choose a city on the East coast of
the U.S.

Linux (and other unices for the most part) are smart enough to change from EDT
to EST and back as the year progresses.

I think tzconfig is what you are looking for.
