And that paths within that directory aren't standard values for TZ? If not, what is? You suggested one value; I suggested another and assumed that either would work as there are lots of correct values for TZ. I certainly was not taking issue with the suggestion you made. If it is the case that that directory is not known to cygcheck then it seems to me that it ought to be. This is the Cygwin location of zoneinfo at any rate, and when I tested my value it worked for the `date' program. -- Lee Maschmeyer Wayne State University Computing Center 5925 Woodward, #281 Detroit MI 48202 USA -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
