I agree to daemons answer, the structure is not exactly as u describe killerserv. There are things that are different as daemon says.
1. I don't have this line
"/etc/default/init "
2. I got this
"/usr/share/lib/zoneinfo"
But tnx anyway.
One important thing is that I can't reboot the system, I am afraid it will never startup again.

I'm running on UNIX with Solaris. I need to change the Timezone on the box and was going to make the changes to the files and then reboot the box.
Someone warned me that this method should not be used and that a util (unconfig.sys I think it was) should be used to make the changes.
Any ideas... (2 Replies)

datetime::timezone::local::unix5.18
DateTime::TimeZone::Local::Unix(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation DateTime::TimeZone::Local::Unix(3)
NAME
DateTime::TimeZone::Local::Unix - Determine the local system's time zone on Unix
VERSION
version 1.63
SYNOPSIS
my $tz = DateTime::TimeZone->new( name => 'local' );
my $tz = DateTime::TimeZone::Local->TimeZone();
DESCRIPTION
This module provides methods for determining the local time zone on a Unix platform.
HOW THE TIME ZONE IS DETERMINED
This class tries the following methods of determining the local time zone:
o $ENV{TZ}
It checks $ENV{TZ} for a valid time zone name.
o /etc/localtime
If this file is a symlink to an Olson database time zone file (usually in /usr/share/zoneinfo) then it uses the target file's path name
to determine the time zone name. For example, if the path is /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Chicago, the time zone is "America/Chicago".
Some systems just copy the relevant file to /etc/localtime instead of making a symlink. In this case, we look in /usr/share/zoneinfo
for a file that has the same size and content as /etc/localtime to determine the local time zone.
o /etc/timezone
If this file exists, it is read and its contents are used as a time zone name.
o /etc/TIMEZONE
If this file exists, it is opened and we look for a line starting like "TZ = ...". If this is found, it should indicate a time zone
name.
o /etc/sysconfig/clock
If this file exists, it is opened and we look for a line starting like "TIMEZONE = ..." or "ZONE = ...". If this is found, it should
indicate a time zone name.
o /etc/default/init
If this file exists, it is opened and we look for a line starting like "TZ=...". If this is found, it should indicate a time zone name.
