Hi Tim Your suggestion seems interesting to some extent. One clue i got now is UTC is enabled in /etc/sysconfig/clock file. Being UTC is enabled is naturally equals to setting GMT as timezone. Please correct me if i am wrong.
My question is, when i put a normal java code to display the time and timezone of the system, it just displays the timezone in IST without any problem. clock command's output returns the time in IST timezone it self. Then how come Tomcat alone can respect the UTC enablement in /etc/sysconfig/clock?
