Message-ID: <20020818071521.B58763-100000@utility.clubscholarship.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, I loosely understand that the correct mechanism to determine the time zone that a freebsd system has is to md5 a certain file and then compare that md5 with the time zone files themselves and then look at the name of the file that matches....i think... Anyway, someone once gave me a small bit of shellcode that does that - md5s the right file, then md5s all the other ones and echos the one that matches - does anyone have that bit of shellcode ? thanks, PT To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
