OK, these are the times/dates that Standard Time / Daylight Savings Time
are set to start/end in 2007 for the Central time zone in the US. These
numbers indicate that your system is not patched ... It is still
following the old rules. In other words, Sun Apr 1 1:59:59 will be
followed by Sun Apr 1 3:00:00. Once your system has been corrected, you
should get the following output:
US/Central Sun Mar 11 07:59:59 2007 UTC = Sun Mar 11 01:59:59 2007 CST
isdst=0 gmtoff=-21600
US/Central Sun Mar 11 08:00:00 2007 UTC = Sun Mar 11 03:00:00 2007 CDT
isdst=1 gmtoff=-18000
US/Central Sun Nov 4 06:59:59 2007 UTC = Sun Nov 4 01:59:59 2007 CDT
isdst=1 gmtoff=-18000
US/Central Sun Nov 4 07:00:00 2007 UTC = Sun Nov 4 01:00:00 2007 CST
isdst=0 gmtoff=-21600
