The manpage for tzsetup pointed me to /etc/localtime which, when viewed in the "more" viewer, had PST near the end so I'm assuming I'm setup okay now. But I wonder why there is no unix standard command to view and/or set the PC's current timezone! -- Peter Leftwich President & Founder Video2Video Services Box 13692, La Jolla, CA, 92039 USA +1-413-403-9555 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
