If it really is, then check last timezone update in the Glibc (libc6), then file bug report, if even most recent version has errors. (Note, that Debian is using relatevely old glibc, but libc maintainers are trying to backport and update it, of course). But just to have correct local time, you may use tzselect and specify time offset directly: ,-- |[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ export TZ='UTC-1' |[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ date |Fri Nov 3 17:41:20 UTC 2006 |[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ date -R |Fri, 03 Nov 2006 17:41:38 +0100 |[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ `-- (Note, TZ value is set up by how many hours Universal Time is ahead (or back), but `date' shows how many hours you must add to Universal Time to get your local one). > Regards, > > Dean > in Calgary > ____ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
