This gets weirder.

My original comments were made against my production systems which
are running Fedora Core 4.  My test environment running Fedora Core 5
gets it right.

My Ubuntu Breezy has it right.

My breezy has it wrong :(  I didn't alter the standard install. If I recall
it points at ubuntu's own timeserver?

Have you installed the libc6 update that came out very recently?  It's the
one with the updated tzdata.

libc6 is already the newest version.

(yes, i did update first!)

Is there some nice clear ntp doc somewhere so that I can go RTFM? I've just
looked at ntp-doc and it's as clear as post-processed-Pal.

The problems I've got are:

1: Breezy gives the wrong time
2: Macintoshes pointing at Apple time servers give the wrong time
3: Sarge set up as a local time server gives the wrong time

It's an interesting case in point about reading fine manuals. I read the manual
a while ago to set everything up for myself - it's worked fine until now, but
the fundamentals are quite complex and frankly I don't have the time today to fix it. I COULD pay someone to do it, and perhaps I will, but it would also be nice to find some place that explains it well.
