Subject: time changes?

Message-ID: <19970406000927._Sb7EmLr7WjfZ80daN4UiH3XqCC75T8Jv5UVpzwLAuI@z> (raw)

has anyone found a satisfactory way to make plan 9 coexist
with things like windows95/NT in terms of the calendar?
i am running NT very once in a while, and told it that i
lived in greenwich when i installed, so at least it would
sort of know what time it was (my pc clock is set to gmt for
plan 9).  the problem is that a week ago it changed the time
to anticipate daylight savings and now plan 9 is an hour fast.
had i set it for us-eastern, it would be changing the next
time i boot winNT after tomorrow morning.  does anyone know how
to turn it off/know of any time zones that are daylight-inefficient
and don't ever change the clocks?  i don't really care what time
zone windows thinks it is in as long as it leaves the clock alone.
