This (20110520203500)2011/05/20 20:35:00 isn't "Fri May 20 17:35:00 2011." :(
Anyone have idea how to solve this problem?
There isn't a problem: 20:35 GMT is 17:35 BRT.
As a general rule, ISC software stores timestamps in GMT rather than
in the local timezone to avoid all sorts of nonportable painful issues
with local timezone conversions.
The human-readable versions in the .key files are in the timezone in
which dnssec-keygen or dnssec-settime was run ... which might not be
the same as that on the nameserver on which they are subsequently
deployed.
But only the numeric UTC versions have any effect on the actual behavior
of BIND.
