Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG How do I set the systems default timezone to a non-standard timezone ? Eg. if I live in zone XYZ and we are 11 hours ahead of GMT. I know how to do this at the user level ( by setting the TZ variable in the .profile to a posix compliant format, eg. XYZ-11 ) but I do not know how to do this at the system default level.
