Well, are you talking about NTP or your timezone data (NTP knows nothing |
| 14 |
about timezones and vice versa). The timezone data is in the |
| 15 |
timezone-data package (not surprisingly). My understanding is that if |
| 16 |
you live in the United States and have any version released after 2005 |
| 17 |
you should be okay, but you can always see what your time zone data |
| 18 |
looks like with the zdump(8) command. |
