One is running : [onyx]:[7:20pm]:[/home/rnejdl] > uname -a FreeBSD onyx.training.verio.net 3.4-RELEASE FreeBSD 3.4-RELEASE #0: Tue Mar 7 20:34:32 GMT 2000 root@pandora.ringofsaturn.com:/usr/src/sys/compile/TRAINNET i386 [onyx]:[7:20pm]:[/home/rnejdl] > and the other is running: [crimson]:[6:20pm]:[/home/rnejdl] > uname -a FreeBSD crimson.training.verio.net 4.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE #1: Wed Jun 21 12:13:11 CDT 2000 root@crimson.training.verio.net:/usr/src/sys/compile/CRIMSON i386 [crimson]:[6:20pm]:[/home/rnejdl] > Both are currently set to BST time and I have run the time zone setup section in /stand/sysinstall and every time I tell it that my computer is set to UTC, it ignores me and goes right into picking a country, which is not what it should do. I also went into the Europe section into Great Britain to try to pick UTC/GMT manually and it was not a choice. It appears that this is a bug in the TIMEZONE section. Let me know. Thanks!
