Assunto: Re: Re: Solaris 2.7 Daylight saving time fix.

Sadly, this script still leaves me with zdump -v showing April 1st for
DST changeover.

Yeah, it appears you need to do a couple things - one is change from the
old school "?STx?DT" TZ format (to US/Central for example) and the other
is to ditch the solaris zdump for the nih one. I'm still hoping for a
response but it was indicated that Sun holds that the ?STx?DT format
precludes using any zoneinfo files - not sure where it gets the info then
(one of libc or libdl? time()?) but ....

Not sure if the "problem" extends beyond just zdump, that is, what other
programs might not use the zoneinfo info
