NAME

timezone − Sets timezone information

SYNOPSIS

/usr/sbin/timezone [−d]

DESCRIPTION

The timezone command is an interactive program for setting and changing the timezone for users running in the SVID 2 habitat. The program prompts you for specific information regarding the timezone for your area and outputs the settings of both the TZ and TZC environment variables to the /etc/svid2_tZ file. If you specify the −d option, the timezone command outputs only the setting of the TZC environment variable. 

You must execute this command if you are using the SVID 2 habitat.  After it runs, it does not need to be run again unless the operating system is reinstalled. 

RESTRICTIONS

You must have superuser privileges to use the timezone command. 

Refer to the System V Compatibility User’s Guide for information on the System V Habitat.
