Great suggestion... but the time zone does exist.

[kmckin...@sjspdsupport ~]$ ls /usr/share/zoneinfo/US/Pacific
/usr/share/zoneinfo/US/Pacific

[kmckin...@sjspdsupport ~]$ ls /usr/share/zoneinfo/US/
Alaska  Aleutian  Arizona  Central  Eastern  East-Indiana  Hawaii  
Indiana-Starke  Michigan  Mountain  Pacific  Samoa

However, my system time is set to /America/Los_Angeles. You'd think it'd be the 
same, but for paranoia's sake, we'll make them match. Changing the RT config to 
America/Los_Angeles and rebooting doesn't seem to have changed the logging away 
from UTC.

Can I force my RT install to use the system time/time zone?
The system time is correct, and /etc/rt/RT_SiteConfig.pm has always been set to 
Set($Timezone, 'US/Pacific');, but I'm noticing that the rt.log is logging 7 
hours ahead (GMT?) Should I care? What's the point of setting the timezone if 
we're logging in UTC/GMT?

Is US/Pacific a timezone on your system?   For example, I had this same problem 
until I realized that on FreeBSD I needed to use America/Los_Angeles

ls /usr/share/zoneinfo (or it's equivalent on your system) will show you the 
accepted names.
