help for writing a script

Hi, I need help writing a unix script to change the time in the server automatically when it reaches a specified time.

Only on the 14th of april, when the time becomes midnight (00:00:00), I need the server to change the time automatically to 23:30:00 and start working on as usual with a difference of a half an hour. Our country is adjusting the day light saving time (in sri lanka) on this day and need our servers to get set automatically.

Please help asap.

thanks.

amodha,
I'm not sure if anyone on this forum will give you a tailor-made script for your problem. Try to post whatever your solution is and you'll definitely get a lot of help getting it to work.

Good luck!

I see RHN released an updated tzdata package incorporating this timezone change, and I suspect that other *nix vendors have done the same. Why not patch your system?

Cheers
