Hello,
We are running Suse 9.1 through 9.3 and 10.0 in our shop. What is the best method to get DST settings changed to reflect the new DST dates?
Will running online update automatically fix DST? Is there a config file that can be changed or viewed to confirm that the system is ready for the time change?
SUSE Linux 9.1, 9.2 are out of support and have likely not got the DST fixes.
For all others, if you installed all online updates, your system should be fine.
Running programs will even pick up the timezone changes on the fly, without need to restart.

Thank you for the response. So what file can be modified on the 9.1 & 9.2 machines to get them on the new DST standard?
Many thanks,

Almost everything in Linux is internally GMT / UTC. Why not just change the user logins on those machines to report time in GMT for a few weeks. Next month you can put them back to reporting in DST if you really need it. Personally I would just assume keep everything in GMT.
