Hi Todd, In Windows scripting, you could make a cvs.bat which set the timezone specifically for that application, without altering the environment of other programs or batch scripts:
setlocal set TZ=myUTCzone cvs %* endlocal What you were suggesting with the CVS_TZ is something you could include in this wrapper script, if necessary. You could set TZ to CVS_TZ if it existed for the scope of the cvs application only. I presume you're running on Linux/Unix, so I'm not sure what the equivalent operations would be in that environment.
