I've had another look at your strange American times available: [root@seditious zoneinfo]# pwd /usr/share/zoneinfo [root@seditious zoneinfo]# ls -l EST* -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 118 Apr 14 23:54 EST -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2294 Apr 14 23:54 EST5EDT [root@seditious zoneinfo]# ls -l US/ total 96 -rw-r--r-- 2 root root 2358 Apr 14 23:54 Alaska -rw-r--r-- 3 root root 2353 Apr 14 23:54 Aleutian -rw-r--r-- 2 root root 327 Apr 14 23:54 Arizona -rw-r--r-- 2 root root 3543 Apr 14 23:54 Central -rw-r--r-- 3 root root 3519 Apr 14 23:54 Eastern -rw-r--r-- 4 root root 1649 Apr 14 23:54 East-Indiana -rw-r--r-- 2 root root 250 Apr 14 23:54 Hawaii -rw-r--r-- 3 root root 2395 Apr 14 23:54 Indiana-Starke -rw-r--r-- 2 root root 2202 Apr 14 23:54 Michigan -rw-r--r-- 4 root root 2427 Apr 14 23:54 Mountain -rw-r--r-- 2 root root 2819 Apr 14 23:54 Pacific -rw-r--r-- 3 root root 290 Apr 14 23:54 Samoa [root@seditious zoneinfo]# What happens if you try /usr/share/zoneinfo/EST5EDT or /usr/share/zoneinfo/US/Eastern? Also, what happens when you try "date -u"? If that's actually different from the real UTC, then your timezone data is less likely to be the cause. Regards, Ben
