DST changes

[David]

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
