[tlug] Red Hat 7.2 Enterprise install.log.syslog times



Here is a question about Red Hat:
What is the time zone of the times in the install.log.syslog file?

A customer sent in a Red Hat 7.2 Enterprise web server for recovery.   
In the /tmp directory, I found what looks to be an install log, that is, 
a file called install.log.syslog containing text lines like:

<86>Jan 11 13:31:38 groupadd[352]: new group: name=ntp, gid=38
<78>Jan 11 15:43:54 crontab[1829]: (root) REPLACE (mailman)
<21>Jan 11 15:44:34 sendmail[1832]: alias database /

However, "ls -l" shows:
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 4096 2006-01-12 05:44 /F06020301/tmp/install.log.syslog

If the ls time is from the last entry in the file, then the time difference is 14 hours.

Would the installer have been running on JST-14 = Eastern Standard Time?
