I got this response from inode0 a while back: Q: (Redhat Mailing List) Does anyone know how to make a custom /etc/localtime file on Red Hat in preparation for the upcoming DST changes (March 11)? I have some older Red Hat builds (circa 7.x), and I cannot find any glibc patches with the newer time zone information. On other *nix flavors they are flat files, and can be edited with vi, but with Red Hat they are binary. A: (inode0) Get the current zone files from ftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/pub.. Use zic to compile them, cp or link the appropriate one to /etc/localtime, and perhaps run timeconfig or whatever is available on your system.
