I think tzconfig comes with every distro of Linux. You could always run
ntpd
off some ntp server you want to synch off in this time zone either.


When I use timeconfig to configure the timezone, I have five possible GMT
options - GMT, GMT+0, GMT-0, GMT0, Greenwich.
Does anybody know which one of these I should use so that my machine will
automatically account for daylight savings time?
