Rick,
w/in the NetBSD environment, you can fix this by:
1) change the timezone link. (from memory), change the /etc/localtime
link to point to a different timezone (or you could generate your
own). I think you want /usr/share/zoneinfo/CST6CDT.
Or, if you wanted to use UTC for some reason, the following options
are also available:
2) edit the timezone variable in kernel configuration using config(8)
(simply specify the correction in minutes). Useful if you are
using a generic kernel.
3) rebuild the kernel using a custom timezone offset same as above
but if you are building your own kernel anyway, no extra effort.
Hope that helps,
Rob
