I am having a problem with the /etc/localtime. After applying the time zone update the UI came with a blank popup and when I saved the page it erased the /etc/localtime. I have manually added a link ti the right timezone (/etc/localtime -> /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/ Vancouver) but how do I get the ui back?

Thanks

Pierre

What you want to see, regardless of your timezone, is when it switches from ?ST to ?DT. So for 2007, more precisely, you want:

# date -r 1173607199
Sun Mar 11 01:59:59 PST 2007
# date -r 1173607200
Sun Mar 11 03:00:00 PDT 2007

Vivek,

Here are my results:

    # date -r 1175386460 ; date -r 1175486460
    Sat Mar 31 19:14:20 CDT 2007
    Sun Apr  1 23:01:00 CDT 2007

Mine are off an hour, but I'm in a different time zone so does that
account for the difference? I wish I could have done this little test
before doing the "upgrade". :-)

Thanks,
Stephan

What can I do to make sure the new zoneinfo file(s) are being
used? I'm not sure from LJ's message what to look for.

in the USA, run this command line:

date -r 1175386460 ; date -r 1175486460

you should get something like this on a corrected system:

Sat Mar 31 20:14:20 EDT 2007
Mon Apr  2 00:01:00 EDT 2007

Whereas on an incorrect (ie, older zone file) system you would get:

Sat Mar 31 19:14:20 EST 2007
Mon Apr  2 00:01:00 EDT 2007


If you have any other freebsd system, you can simply copy a
working /etc/localtime file onto the one on your pfsense box.  my
understanding is that any unix system using the same zone info
compiler (pretty much any unix in existence) should produce working
zone files.
