How does one update his time server to > reflect the Daylight Savings? You don't fix the timeserver. You fix the zonefiles for the timezone. FreeBSD keeps its internal time as UTC. When you use date(1) what you see is the local representation of that time. If you've set up the local timezone correctly with tzsetup(8), you should get the results you expect. -- Jonathan Chen | To do is to be -- Nietzsche | To be is to do -- Sartre | Scooby do be do -- Scooby To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
