Title:
cron is not timezone aware on per line base
Status in cron package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
We need to specify many different cronjobs in many different timezones
http://blogs.oracle.com/chrisg/entry/timezone_aware_cron_finally_pushed
OpenSolaris finally contains a version of cron that understands and correctly
handles having different timezones. You can also specify a different home
directory (useful when you don't want NFS to get involved in your cron job for
any reason) and shell to run jobs in. It should be in build 106 of OpenSolaris
& Nevada.
This brings you crontab in line with at(1) which has been timezone aware for
some time.
To use simply set the variables HOME, TZ and SHELL in your crontab file and
all subsequent lines will use those values until the next HOME, TZ and SHELL
lines are found:
