yet another way to fix older fedora releases
 

You can install the tzdata rpm from fedora 6 into fedora 3.

Then set your zone by:

rm /etc/localtime

ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Los_Angeles /etc/localtime

Thanks Brydon!
 

Your post was very helpful as I previously did not understand how the timezone files could be examined and updated.

Yes, just to add my thanks, also, this worked perfectly on an old RH6.2 server I have here.

Great help on this!!
