My system is:
PHP 4.3.1
Apache 1.3.27
on Linux box (kernel 2.4.20) with glibc 2.3.1

When i use date('T') with different timestmas i get different results

date('T m.d.Y',307573767) - 01.10.1979 EEST
date('T m.d.Y',307577835) - 01.10.1979 EET

date from BASH console returns EEST

We are happy to tell you that you just discovered Daylight Savings
Time. For more information see:
http://webexhibits.org/daylightsaving/b.html
Instead of using mktime/date consider using gmmktime and gmdate which do
not suffer from DST.

EET  Eastern Europe Time        UTC+2 hours Athens during winter
EEST Eastern Europe Summer Time UTC+3 hours Athens during summer

Is this a confirmed problem? I have the same thing. When i refresh a page it gives GMT CEST or GMT-1. Whatever it likes. There seems to be no logic. A test example is at http://dave.puxie.nl/timetest

php version 4.3.1
apache 2.0
gentoo linux
