Hi everyone,

As many of you know the new day light saving times regulations will be in place this year. Instead of using the patches provided by IBM, is it possible to sync time with NTP?

Patches?

Just put the correct settings in /etc/environment

I'm in UK so I use

TZ=GMT0BST,M3.5.0,M10.5.0

If you were swiss use

TZ=CET-1CET,M3.5.0,M9.5.0

and so on....

You could use NTP but it may take some time to drift an hour...
