Run this from a shell:

/etc/rc.conf_mount_rw # Only needed for embedded
fetch -o /usr/share/zoneinfo.tgz "
http://cvs.pfsense.com/~sullrich/zoneinfo.tgz";
/etc/rc.conf_mount_ro # Only needed for embedded

# Only needed for embedded is not needed if you are running embedded,
otherwise the shell should ignore that text.

Next visit system -> general and click save.

I'll get this commited shortly so it will start showing up in the
snapshosts.

Thanks for bringing this to my attention,

Scott
