You underestimate the true power of this operating system. :-) Either change the /etc/localtime symlink to point to the right timezone file, or run /stand/sysinstall, choose "Configure" for post-install config, select "Time Zone", and you'll end up being prompted with these choices: x x 1 Eastern Time x x 2 Eastern Time - Michigan - most locations x x 3 Eastern Time - Kentucky - Louisville area x x 4 Eastern Time - Kentucky - Wayne County x x 5 Eastern Standard Time - Indiana - most locations x x 6 Eastern Standard Time - Indiana - Crawford County x x 7 Eastern Standard Time - Indiana - Starke County x x 8 Eastern Standard Time - Indiana - Switzerland County ...which will do the same thing. -- -Chuck
