Hello.

I've been bitten by a misunderstanding in the way Time Zone are defined under FUD vs. how they are set under Solaris. (My uname -a says : SunOS endor 5.8 Generic_108528-15 sun4u sparc SUNW,UltraSPARC-IIi-cEngine)

Fud define my timezone by "America/Montreal". I don't know about other OS, but under Solaris 2.8, there is no time zone called like this.

All my users are required to log-in, and I can "force" them to be under the correct value for my time zone (ie. Canada/Eastern). But I guess that this is not the case for everybody...

So here are the correct info for Solaris :
The zoneinfo files are taken from /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/ on my system. Here are the possible values :

bash-2.05$ ls /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/*
/usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/CET         /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT+2       /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT-7       /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/Navajo
