What's the proper solution to this? dragonfly ~ # date Wed Jan 16 17:45:44 Local time zone must be set--see zic manual page 2008 dragonfly ~ # My mythbackend server is Linux only. The clock line is currently set to UTC. timezone is Los Angeles as it's always been. It's 9:45 as I write this but the clock thinks it's 17:45. 8 hours ahead is GMT, right? The hardware clock seems to be on GMT: dragonfly ~ # hwclock -r Wed Jan 16 17:46:35 2008 -0.584758 seconds dragonfly ~ # It seems the localtime file is messed up? dragonfly ~ # cat /usr/share/zoneinfo/localtime TZif21Local time zone must be set--see zic manual pageTZif21Local time zone must be set--see zic manual page 0 dragonfly ~ # Isn't that supposed to be a link to Los_Angeles in my case?
