Revisiting this as time draws near...

My servers here at the office aren't updated with the revised stuff... 
however, my offsite webserver is....

Using this URL/thread as a guide:

http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=518752

I seems that one needs to regenerate a file called "EST5EDT" then copy 
it into place, implying that it is generic.

Can I just grab the one off the web server that is correct and copy it 
to my local servers and just be done with this?
