If I understand your question correctly; If your system is configured correctly and the date/time is set correctly, the output of 'date' should be the correct time and date for your time zone. If you add the -u flag, it should display the current GMT time and date. For example, if the current time in Thailand is 15:00 (3:00 pm), then plain 'date' should print: Mon Dec 18 15:00:00 TST 2006 For date -u you should see: Mon Dec 18 08:00:00 TST 2006 Note, I don't know the correct bymbol for the time in Thailand so I just stuck in 'TST'. ////jerry > > TIA > > ------------------------------------ > Pote :-) > ------------------------------------ > > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
