Why must it be getting it from a file?  See, for example,

man 2 gettimeofday

which is a call in the standard C library that returns the time in GMT 
*and* the time zone the system clock is set to.  Now, if you were to 
tell us that your system isn't set to EST (or current equivalent), then 
this becomes a more interesting conversation....

Or is your question how to reset the time zone for your overall system?
