GOAL:
How to setup UNIX clients on the same system to have different time zones
GOAL:
How to change a UNIX clients timezone value?
FACT(s) (Environment):
UNIX
FIX:
In all UNIX systems, the system clock is supposed to be set (and kept to) to UCT. Local time is established through the use of the time-zone environment variable TZ.
The UNIX command timezone is system wide where the UNIX variable environ allows user environment to be set per run time. Using the environ variable you can specify the timezone for a particular users settings using the LC_TIME string.
For further information on the environ variable and the LC_TIME string see the man pages for the Operating System you are using.
