I had the same problem on Satellite 5.3. Apparently the installer sets the timezone by default to EST. Here's what I had to do to set it to Central (this is on Satellite 5.3, so YMMV): Overview->Locale Preferences (set the timezone in the top drop-down) Feedback for Red Hat: 1) Please have the installer set the displayed timezone to the system timezone by default. 2) Perhaps I'm missing something, but the link to Locale Preferences is only under Overview. Why isn't it under Admin, where one would think it should be located? I haven't played with Spacewalk yet (just Satellite), so perhaps this has been fixed recently.

My '/etc/localtime' is a copy of the PST8PDT timezone file from '/usr/share/zoneinfo' and I have the "ZONE" variable set to "America/Los_Angeles" in '/etc/sysconfig/clock'. It has been this way since I built this server so I am confused as to why/where spacewalk is getting the EST setting from. </blockquote></div> -- "He that would make his own liberty secure must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself." -- Thomas Paine
