  Getting down to the smaller list of things-to-do.  

  Can anybody clue me in on how-to set the _system_ time
  correctly?  In my own account, in ~/.xsession, I put
  ``setenv TZ PST8PDT'' and  my clock displays the correct
  local time.  But last time I checked, cron was using
  GMT.  Is there an /etc file where the time should be set.

  I read something about /etc/localtime or something  close
  to that name, but no clues, tips on how to create that 
  file or what goes in it.

  Thanks... .
