I too got daylight time to be recognized by changing experimentally from the SystemV-style EST5EDT to America/New_York. But that is not a solution to the problem that EST5EDT seems broken in "frozen". As for rebooting, I reserve that for my Win95 machine ;-). Honestly, I've seen only one instance in 5 years of running Linux where I _had_ to reboot (the kernel was very confused about swap, and was emitting some _very_ alarming warning messages!). It should be enough to '/etc/init.d/cron restart'. - MikeT -- Michael E.
