Re: Timezone setup for Turkey
EET alone would not implement the DST correctly, which is probably your problem.

Re: Timezone setup for Turkey
0 3 31 10 2004 0-6 EET-2
This is correct for the current year. It seems to me, the common rule is the last Sunday of March and October
In this case the rule shoul be like this:
0 3 25-31 3 1983-2038 0 EETDST-3
0 3 25-31 10 1996-2038 0 EET-2

Re: Timezone setup for Turkey
It should already be in your tztab in /usr/lib/tztab
EET-2EETDST
0 3 25-31 3 1981-2038 0 EETDST-3
0 4 24-30 9 1981-2038 0 EET-2
To make it the default TZ edit it in /etc/TIMEZONE
You will need a reboot to force all the processes to use the new timezone
Also keep in mind that TZ is also set in /etc/profile and ~/.profile
HTH,
Peter

Re: Timezone setup for Turkey
I know that it is already in tztab and what to do in order to modify timezone now. But the problem is that is not happened automatically.
Victory indicated a possible solution.
ALPER,
in Turkey does your timezone change automatically? Or have you to do changes in tztab every march and october?
Kind regards,
Pedro

Re: Timezone setup for Turkey
You don't have to change the TIMEZONE file when you shift between summer- and wintertime, or Daylight saving time. The value EET-2EETDST means it will look into the tztab file to see if the first or the second part is currently the right one, depending on the current date. The tztab file will work until 2038.

Re: Timezone setup for Turkey
Elmar is right, there is the needed entry in /usr/lib/tztab, the file should not be updated.
You can see appropriate strings by:
grep EET /usr/lib/tztab.
In order to work according to this timezone variable TZ should be defined as EET-2EETDST

Re: Timezone setup for Turkey
The answer for you questions is YES. The timezone changes automatically.
Here is the output of the command:
grep EET /usr/lib/tztab
EET-2EETDST
0 2 25-31 3 1981-2038 0 EETDST-3
0 1 25-31 10 1981-2038 0 EET-2
P.S I've been told that the command to set TIMEZONE is set_params used by the unix sa in our company.
HTH.
