I have a cron job that's scheduled to go off at 1 am:

    00 01 * * * /usr/local/bin/perl /home/joe/projects/diskusage/t

It actually runs at 6 pm. I think this is some sort of timezone problem -
1am + 7 hours difference between GMT & PDT == 18:00.

The machine has the correct time:

# date
Sun Apr 12 13:32:27 PDT 1998


What could be going on here?

Joe
