I want to set my machine so that it has the time in CST/CDT instead of GMT. This mainly so I can have an xclock on the screen that isn't 6 hours off. The manual says that I don't have to recompile the kernel (as I did with NetBSD-0.9), but durned if I can figure out what I *do* have to do. Any elucidation is much appreciated. -- John D.
