Why would you want to 'change' the timezone? That is supposed to be done once, during installation of the system. The rest of the changes are done automagically, and on well defined occasions. So if you find logs that are 'overlapping' during those occasions, you know that its because of the well known time-change. Any other change in your system clock is suspicious. -giorgos To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
