root@S9:>uname -a
SunOS  5.9 Generic_Virtual sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Blade-T6340

This Sunday, November 4th,  Daylight Time will take effect at 2:00 am CST. Time will roll back (1) hour.  We need the  to maintain/keep the Time unchanged until 8:00 am CST.  

Any ideas?

I found this in roots crontab:

root@S9:>crontab -l
#ident  "@(#)root       1.20    01/11/06 SMI"
#
# The root crontab should be used to perform accounting data collection.
#
# The rtc command is run to adjust the real time clock if and when
# daylight savings time changes.
#
10 3 * * * /usr/sbin/logadm
15 3 * * 0 /usr/lib/fs/nfs/nfsfind
1 2 * * * [ -x /usr/sbin/rtc ] && /usr/sbin/rtc -c > /dev/null 2>&1

Howdy, Stranger!
