Description of problem: Here was what my /etc/sysconfig/clock had because of redhat-config-date: redhat-config-date doesn't recognize UTC=1 though... So it Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Edit /etc/sysconfig/clock to this: ZONE="America/New_York" UTC=true ARC=0 2. run redhat-config-date (Use UTC should be checked) and then just click "OK" 3. /etc/sysconfig/clock is now: ZONE="America/New_York" UTC=1 ARC=0 4. run redhat-config-date again and its no longer checked because redhat-config-date doesn't recognize the value it set itself (UTC=1). Actual results: redhat-config-date sets UTC=1 into /etc/sysconfig/clock but doesn't recognize it. Expected results: redhat-config-date sets it to UTC=true Additional info: Also note that the time applet in Gnome 2 on RH8.0 becomes incorrect if you enable UTC in its prefs. Don't know if that's related.
The latest redhat-config-date in Rawhide should handle the UTC and ARC fields correctly. This is basically a duplicate of bug #72149 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 72149 ***
