Re: [SLUG] DST in debain


Make sure your /etc/timezone is actually set to Australia/Sydney. One of my
machines did the wrong thing because it was set to 'User defined' -- perhaps
the result of an errant upgrade? I've certainly not set it myself. Anyway,
that might be the problem... sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata

Same happened to me this morning on my Debian Lenny desktop. On boot I sync with time.optusnet.com.au, which brought me back an hour. Then I used GNOME's gui magic time zone selecter to actually set Australia/Sydney.
