      I have confirmed a bug with PalmPilot's, at least in Arizona since we do
      not use daylight savings time. Anyone who has synced his PalmPilot
      since last weekend (4/2/2000) has found that new Calender entries are being
      added to the PalmPilot one (1) hour ahead of the Desktop calendar. This
      is true for Solaris 7 HW 11/99 and Solaris 8 FCS desktops.

      Older entries are not affected.

      This was also a bug in the old shareware software and was fixable by
      changing the /etc/TIMEZONE file or using a wrapper script to set TZ
      before the sync command.

      #TZ=US/Arizona
      TZ=MST7

      Setting the above in the /etc/TIMEZONE and then rebooting does not fix this
      for "sdtpdasync".
