Functionaly, they are the same and signify GMT. The only difference is the TZ suffix (like "GMT", or "UTC") that gets displayed. * UTC, Universal and Zulu are identical (all hardlinks), and shows "UTC" * UCT shows "UCT" * Greenwich, GMT0, GMT-0, GMT+0, GMT (and ../GMT) are also hardlinked and show "GMT" Otherwise, no difference.
