Hi,

We have Redhat Linux and Unix Servers in our production branch.

I would like to know is the DST patch only for US or for the whole world.

Thanks for quick reply.

Hi Girish:

If you examine HP Customer Notice Document ID: c00832124 in this link:

http://h10072.www1.hp.com/dst/

then:

Several countries besides the United States of America are also implementing the same DST change (Canada, Bermuda), and other countries are expected to make similar changes. For a complete listing World Wide Daylight Saving time schedule and which countries are changing DST schedules along with the U.S. refer to

There is also a link to RedHat under the Open Source and Linux column in the principal link:

Shalom,

Definitely not the whole world.

Our government is faithfully ignoring the world trend as usual. :-)
