Entourage->iCal events are 5 hours off

[austad]

My laptop is set US/Central, Entourage events are set the same and
ical is set the same. When I turn on Sync Services in Entourage, the
calendar events show up 5 hours off in iCal. I think Sync Services is
assuming all of the times in Entourage are GMT, when they are not.

Is there anyway to resolve this issue? I've tested on 3 different
machines. All are on the latest 10.4 for OSX, and the latest update
for MS Office.

FIXED. Special thanks to Tarun Reddy for noticing that the problem
only appears when using a case-sensitive filesystem. I used fs_usage
to log all file accesses and wrote a bunch of scripts to get me a list
of possible files. I had a list of 536 candidate files after the
scripting and went through all of them by hand until I found it.

ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/UTC /usr/share/zoneinfo/utc
