I read a few days back on the list where the tzdata rpm was to take care of the new DST rules. I run CentOS 3 servers, and did a 'yum update tzdata' , but received a 2006a update of the rpm.
Is this proper? It sure didn't fix anything.
Thanks

So what happens when you run this command to confirm the fix?
zdump -v CST6CDT | grep 2007
According this link at IBMs support docs you should see something like.. On a system with the adjustments you will see: CST6CDT Sun Mar 11 07:59:59 2007 UTC = Sun Mar 11 01:59:59 2007 CST isdst=0 gmtoff=-21600 CST6CDT Sun Mar 11 08:00:00 2007 UTC = Sun Mar 11 03:00:00 2007 CST isdst=0 gmtoff=-18600 CST6CDT Sun Nov 4 06:59:59 2007 UTC = Sun Nov 4 01:59:59 2007 CST isdst=0 gmtoff=-18600 CST6CDT Sun Nov 4 07:00:00 2007 UTC = Sun Nov 4 01:00:00 2007 CST isdst=0 gmtoff=-21600
