> To check to see if your system hasn't been updated do something
> Similar to the following:
>
> /usr/sbin/zdump -v US/Eastern | fgrep 2007
>
> If you see Apr 1, and Oct 28 in the output your system doesn't have
> the update.
>
> If your distro is RHEL based download tzdata-2006m-2.el4.src.rpm
> and install the rpm.
>
> If you have Java on your system and use it, you will also need to
> update it as well. Download tzupdater.jar from java.sun.com.
>
> To test your java installation use: java -jar tzupdater.jar -t
> If the JRE has timezone data that doesn't match the one in the tool,
> the verification tests report errors and fail.
>
> To update your java installation use: java -jar tzupdater.jar -u
Thanks for the info. My desktop (Kubuntu) is up to date. I'll start checking
my servers.
