Hi! The russian government has made a surprize. It changed the day of dayligth saving to normal time change from last sunday of september to the last sunday of october. The question is how to change the timezone description ? I have added the line to /usr/src/share/zoneinfo/europe that described the change and changed the line describing the previous years daylight saving time to limit its effect by 1995 year. Then I made make make install It recreated the /usr/share/zoneinfo directory, then I copied the Yekaterinburg zone (in Asia subdirectory though it is in the europe source file) to /etc/localtime. No effect. Tried stand/sysinstall to change the time zone. Rebooted as recommended. No effect. Whad did I wrong ? I'm running 2.0.5 by the way. Thank you in advance! -SB
