I'm probably wrong. Since we are in Indiana we just had to convert all our servers to DST last summer. It was a chore because we have everything from FreeBSD 6.1 to Solaris Sparc 10s. I am seriously considering switching all of our NOCs to GMT and calling it a done deal. I am not convinced that the DST rules will not change again and playing catch up with politicians is not a good use of my techs time. I noticed Yahoo switched to GMT. Is anyone else running all their servers on GMT? DAve -- Three years now I've asked Google why they don't have a logo change for Memorial Day. Why do they choose to do logos for other non-international holidays, but nothing for Veterans? Maybe they forgot who made that choice possible.
