Hi,
  I have just installed ntp 3.4 on a RS6000 with AIX 3.1.5.  This is just
to keep my own time, I am not serving to anyone.  I have setup my ntp.conf
with 2 "server" lines: one local and one on another campus.  Both are
running xntpd (not sure of the version) on SunOS 4.1.2.
 
I start ntpd and watch the log, all works fine.  There is one problem though:
the time on my RS6000 is 1 hour behind that of the Sun's.  Here is the
output of the "date" command on the RS6000:
 
Thu Jan 28 07:59:04 EET 1993
 
Here is the output of "date" on the local Sun:
 
Thu Jan 28 08:59:04 EST 1993
 
I am in a daylight saving zone.  If I use "setclock" to get the time from
the Sun, it also gives me the wrong time. (Same as ntpd)  "Setclock" worked
fine before daylight saving started!
 
Any suggestions as to who has the timezone problem?  Me?  The Sun? Both?
 
Thanks,
