Be sure that all .login files are changed to use EST5EDT. Also, change
/etc/sysinitrc (it's in there somewhere as well).

I've set every occurrance I could find, yet the system will still (on random
occasion) give me the right time in PDT (ie, if it's 10 am, it'll say 0700PDT).

A seperate problem I have is this: now that we are running on Daylight Savings,
A/ux reports the time as one hour later than what the Mac says the time is.
In order for me to have A/ux tell me accurately that it is 10 am, I must
set the mac to 9 am. Why is this?
