Hello Patric,

you are great! Thanks a lot for your answer!
I have installed tzdata-2004e-2.
I hope everything will be all right on Sunday.

Best wishes,
Graza

> Hi Graza,
> UTC is the new name for GMT. You don't need UTC if your hardware clock is not specially UTC.
> CEST is Central European Summer Time and means that you have Daylight Saving Time enabled. Sunday, it will become CET (if you have the rigkt package tzdata).
> The dates of change are automatically set in /etc/localtime which is a copy of /usr/share/zoneinfo/"your_contry".
> Then, for a change this week-end you might have the rpm "tzdata-2006......" installed, check it with command "rpm -q tzdata".
