Hi folks, I am trying to set the time zone to GMT on some 2.2.8 machines. This is trivial on a 3.x system (cd /usr/share/zoneinfo && tzsetup GMT), but on 2.x, tzsetup(8) doesn't take a time zone argument. Is there another interface I can use? Or is it safe to copy a -stable tzsetup(8) over and use that? Or for that matter a -stable copy of /etc/localtime? Judging from a diff of the source code to tzsetup, the localtime format hasn't changed, but I want to make sure, as these are semi-production systems. I await your answers with bated breath. I'd appreciate a cc on any replies, as I am swamped enough with -current and -stable and so I don't read -hackers. Thanks in advance. -- Ben UNIX Systems Engineer, Skunk Group StarMedia Network, Inc.
