Description Felipe Bertrand 2002-12-03 19:30:22 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20021003

Description of problem:
redhat-config-date uses "1/0" for the parameters UTC and ARC in
/etc/sysconfig/clock rather than the "true/false" or "yes/no" formats required
by /etc/init.d/halt

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.launch redhat-config-date
2.change the "system uses UTC" option
3.exit
	

Actual Results:  /etc/sysconfig/clock will look like:

ZONE="America/New_York"
UTC=0
ARC=0


Expected Results:  /etc/sysconfig/clock should look like:

ZONE="America/New_York"
UTC=no
ARC=no

Additional info:

The change of format is required because /etc/init.d/halt
does not understand the 1/0 format.
