I'm in the Newfoundland timezone and exporting the TZ variable to
"Canada/Newfoundland" then restarting the ntpd process keeps my clock
one hour before the actual time.

Is there a problem since the Day Light Savings came into affect the
other day? My computer's time has been an hour behind ever since.

My ntp.conf:
server time.nrc.ca
driftfile /var/lib/ntp/drift/ntp.drift
logconfig =syncevents +peerevents +sysevents +allclock
logfile /var/log/ntp

My TZ variable:
TZ=Canada/Newfoundland

Thanks for any help.
