Hi

I'm installing xntp on RH6.2 and am having trouble with the timezone. Ntp
starts up and syncs with my server (date on both will say 19:11 at the same
time), but the RH system says it's EST. If I define TZ to be "America/Chicago"
(the output from tzselect), it changes to CST, but the time will shift to an
hour before (server=19:11 while RH=18:11). I've tried putting "America/Chicago"
in /usr/local/etc/zoneinfo/TZ, but that had no effect, so maybe I'm not
understanding the purpose of that file.

rpm -qf /usr/local/etc/zoneinfo

says that the file is not owned by any package.

Would someone please clue me in on how to get this working correctly? I'd
really prefer to not reinstall at this point because of other installed things
which I'd rather not have to redo.

Thanks
