It seems that you are five hours west of greenwich.
Your timezone could be something like "CST+5" but not "GMT-5"
The difference between 18:30 and 13:30 is five hours so the graph time
will probably display at GMT.

You can believe me, redhat 6.0 is doing just fine (at least for MET).

Run a cron job, let it execute this script: (yes, do it from cron and
not just from the command line)
---cut here---
#!/bin/bash
echo $TZ
date
date -u
---cut here---
The results should be:
An emptly line (TZ should not be set)
Your local time (at which cron run the job)
GMT time (ahead 5 hours or so)

Make sure GMT time is correct. Then, make sure your wall clock time is.

Regards,
Alex
