Hi all, i have a Debian Server here which is using an NTP server for time synchronization. At the DST shifts, the server time is correctly set. In the database on the server i have a table with a column which contains timestamps but the type of the column is char(30). The timestamps in this column are compared with the local time on the server to check if one of the entries is "too old". The problem is that when the shift to summertime is made (one hour to the future) the check returns that all entries are too old. So i need to store the timestamp in the database independent of the configured timezone or DST and a SQL statement to get the entries which are too old. The timestamps also have to be shown in a html site using jsp in local time so i would also need another statement that performs the conversion to the currently configured timezone and DST setting. thx, Peter
