I installed FreeBSD on a new system back in January.  When promped to set
UTC during the install I answered no, and set the timezone to London.

In March my system did not forward the system clock by 1 hour, although
date shows the timezone as BST.

I recently installed Debian Woody on the system and set the timesone to
London.  The date also displays BST, but is 1 hour ahead.  I also installed
freedos recently, but did not notice if the time was correct.

any suggestions?

thanks
Jeff
