James, apologies for ignorance - what is NTP daemon ?
I have Mandrake 8.0 and DB2 v7.2.  When I type "date" on the command line,
and when I use "current timestamp" in insert SQL statements, I don't get
the 1 hour difference.  I am in the Queensland timezone.

    I seem to be having a strange thing with DB2 and Redhat 8.0 - While the
time revealed by typing "date" on the command line is correct, and the NTP
daemon is running correctly and everything "appears" correct, when I do an
insert or update on a DB2 database, using the "current timestamp" command,
the time is 1 hour slow.... Has anyone else in the Queensland timezone had
this strangeness occur?? Anyone got any idea where I might look for where
the problem is? NB: This problem doesn't occur on the test server, which is
currently still running 7.3 - Only on the 8.0 production server...
