Since we are in Indiana we just had to convert all our servers to DST last summer. It was a chore because we have everything from FreeBSD 6.1 to Solaris Sparc 10s. I am seriously considering switching all of our NOCs to GMT and calling it a done deal. I am not convinced that the DST rules will not change again and playing catch up with politicians is not a good use of my techs time.

I find myself in strong agreement with this position.

I noticed Yahoo switched to GMT. Is anyone else running all their servers on GMT?

Not all of them, no-- but most of them, especially anything which is running a database or doing logfile processes, I want to have them working in GMT. Something like a mail server or fileserver, it's perhaps better to keep things in the local timezone to avoid confusing users with timestamps that are not as expected...
