This is the output from a script that outputs the localtime variable and the
net time command.

LocalTime:      Tue Oct 22 20:18:31 2002
Net Time:       Current time at \\kgoodm is 10/22/2002 3:18 PM


The localtime output is still 5 hours ahead of my net time output.

I looked and my time zone is set correctly to Central Time.

I have not yet looked at perldoc perllocale.  Maybe that is what I need to
change.

I think "net time" will return UCT, or Universal Coordinated Time, which
used to be known as Greenwich Mean Time.

If you were to just type "time" at the DOS prompt or "date" at the *nix
prompt, the time should agree with LOCALTIME.

My localtime function returns this:  Tue Oct 22 18:30:53 2002


I am in the Central Time zone and my machine time (net time at DOS prompt)
returns this: 10/22/2002 1:37 PM


Does anyone have any idea why my localtime is 5 hours ahead?

Thanks,
Kristi
