I'm still running an older kernel of Redhat and since the change back
to standard time, whenever I reboot, the time reverts to daylight time
(1 hr later); I have to manually reset it to the right time. In the
/etc/sysconfig/clock file the settings are UTC=false, ARC=false. Do I
need to change these or something else? What about the 'clock -s'
command? Thanks for helping.

Well, that looks like Southern California. So what is your time zone set
to? Depending on the age of your Red Hat distribution, the time zone was
set by a link name /etc/localtime
[keyhole ~]$ ls -l /etc/localtime
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 32 Apr 17 1999 /etc/localtime ->
../usr/share/zoneinfo/US/Arizona
[keyhole ~]$
Later versions of _Red Hat_ used a tool called 'redhat-config-date', while
Fedora used a similar tool 'system-config-date' to set the right timezone.
If you actually are in Southern California, the correct zonetime is
'America/Los_Angeles'. I'm near Phoenix with the CMOS clock set to
UTC, so time data looks like this:
[compton ~]$ date ; date -u ; /sbin/hwclock --show
Thu Nov 23 13:04:27 MST 2006
Thu Nov 23 20:04:27 UTC 2006
Thu Nov 23 20:04:28 2006 -0.121384 seconds
[compton ~]$
