Hi, Someone mentioned something that I thought might be relevant to a few others. Basically we all know the /usr/share/timezone/Australia/Sydney is encoded with relevant daylight savings changes.
But it appears this year daylight savings is going to be extended by a week I believe to work with the commonwealth games in Melbourne, which means our systems are going to report times for this week as incorrect, as they dont know daylight savings has extended, unless of course modified /usr/share/timezone/Australia/Sydney files are released. My memory tells me when this has happened in past that we setup a rule using tzset to work around this, does anyone have any details about using tzset (if my memory is correct) or already have a suitable rule to use with it. It appears this timezone encoded file is used on a number of platforms, not just linux.
