[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# date Tue Jun 21 19:14:54 EST 2005 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# echo $TZ [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# It would seem that TZ is not set. I've determined that this should come from the configuration file (which it seems isn't loading). At the moment the config file is in "/home/mythtv/.xmltv/tv_grab_au.conf". I don't know how it finds it when running as root. I'll try copying the file to "/root/.xmltv/". Is there a way to specify a parameter when mythbackend runs the tv_grab_au script? I am running Fedora Core 3. Matthew.
