Subject: DST changes
The latest panic at work is, of course, the DST changes coming up in
march. I like to think that I have my systems set to UTC with the correct
zone specified, however, I'm not sure. I've just been checking all my
rhel servers and lo and behold, /etc/zoneinfo is not a symlink. My dark
side says that I'm not utc, but...how can I tell for sure?

I realize that AZ isn't affected by the change, but we have customers in
other states that are affected.

One other question. using zic to create a new TZ file, does it default to
overwriting the current /usr/share/zoneinfo/EST file? I can't find in the
man page how to write it to, say, /tmp/EST so I can verify it.
Redirecting didn't work.

Thanks,
David
