5:01 PM - MidnightBSD and the upcoming DST issues
Here's a simple test you can perform:
zdump -v EST5EDT | grep 2007
(replace EST5EDT with your time zone)
EST5EDT Sun Mar 11 06:59:59 2007 UTC = Sun Mar 11 01:59:59 2007 EST isdst=0 gmtoff=-18000
EST5EDT Sun Mar 11 07:00:00 2007 UTC = Sun Mar 11 03:00:00 2007 EDT isdst=1 gmtoff=-14400
EST5EDT Sun Nov 4 05:59:59 2007 UTC = Sun Nov 4 01:59:59 2007 EDT isdst=1 gmtoff=-14400
EST5EDT Sun Nov 4 06:00:00 2007 UTC = Sun Nov 4 01:00:00 2007 EST isdst=0 gmtoff=-18000
Since Mar 11 and Nov 4 have entries then this box is ok. It was run on a recent MBSD install. I imported timezones near the end of last year. There maybe a few countries I missed with changes. I will do another timezone update soon.
