I was simply quoting the documentation. Using UTC as a default would make sense to me. (shrug) I always use UTC for the system clock for a Unix machine. But people who dual boot their systems with MS have to make a compromise because MS chose localtime. But localtime is a problem when you travel to different timezones for example. MS won't change but since we have the code for free software systems everybody who decided to share their system with MS has to compromise instead. Or not. I simply run the MS part of the multiboot system at UTC being localtime. That is plenty fine for me. Mostly I never boot MS. :-) Bob
