What is the proper way to handle system time ?
I admin an AIX box for a small company. The time on the AIX machine has to be changed twice a year for DST. I know I can set it to do this automagically but is that a good idea? I have read about people having problems with software databases and cron jobs... Is it possible to sync the AIX machine with a ntp server?
