Hi, In 1994, I tested with TZ offsets of 720 hours. This was on an SVR4 Unix from Unisys, for an application where they wanted to test reminder generation within the app. I would set and export TZ, then start a shell, and run the application inside it. -- Sanjeev Gupta +65 98551208 http://www.linkedin.com/in/ghane On Tue, May 25, 2010 at 23:09, Olson, Arthur David (NIH/NCI) [E] < olsona@dc37a.nci.nih.gov> wrote:

(On some systems, setting TZ to "GMT-48" may do what HB wants.)

Hi,
I have a testing requirement which needs to alter the system date to a couple of days ahead of current date. I am wondering if its possible to have a custom timezone which can provide this date change ability to drift the current time to couple of days ahead by setting the TZ environment variable.
Regards,
