Please Help: 2 (Easy?) Timezone (TZ) Questions

2002-02-13 Thread Amandeep Jawa

Hi folks -

I am still having 2 related problems with the timezone setting for mysqld 
was hoping to get some help.

Basically my squestions are as follows:

a) the documentation says to set timezone by simply using --timezone=# when
starting mysqld - but WHAT are the valid number values  which time zones do
the map to?

b) I have tried to set the timezone using safe_mysqld --timezone=XX where
I have tried various values for XX such as o1, 1, 13, 05,08 BUT near as I
can tell ANY value I put in gives me GMT/UTC time (I think that's what it
is) rather than giving me time offset by the given amount i entered.  This
is not what the documentation seems to suggest will happen - or am I being
obtuse?


Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
