Perhaps a naive question, but anyway:
Let's assume I'm running CentOS4 or RHEL4 and I
updated it to
tzdata-2007c. Before that, it was using an old
tzdata package that did
not have the US DST '07 patches.
Do I have to restart any service? ntpd?
Yes.
Any process started before you update /etc/localtime (and ensure that got updated correctly; it may not have been) may need to be restarted if it uses zoneinfo information. Two obvious ones are syslog and cron. The safest solution is to reboot.
One way to check that localtime is correct (using /bin/sh or similar)
. /etc/sysconfig/clock cmp /usr/share/zoneinfo/$ZONE /etc/localtime
If it reports differences the cp /usr/share/zoneinfo/$ZONE /etc/localtime
and then reboot.

Once updated, a restart of all the applications relying on /etc/localtime is required. The easiest solution would be to reboot the machine in order to ensure that all the applications are properly updated.
