Hi, The timezone files from ftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/pub/ are useful for systems at end of life. Thanks. May I draw your attention to this line in the @(#)asia 8.41 file from tzdata2009n.tar.gz: 1165: Rule Jordan 2002 max - Mar lastThu 24:00 1:00 S The Tru64 version of the zic command is not able to process this line. # zic -d asia "asia", line 1165: invalid time of day As a crude workaround I replaced the 24:00 with 23:59, making a line that reads 1165: Rule Jordan 2002 max - Mar lastThu 23:59 1:00 S You've probably got a better way of dealing with the problem (my solution will be incorrect for one minute prior to changeover), so I'll refrain from sending a patchfile. I have encountered this problem for these versions of Tru64 * Tru64 5.1 (uname -a => OSF1 creaky.old.machine V5.1 732 alpha) * Tru64 5.1B-4 (uname -a => OSF1 a.newer.machine V5.1 2650 alpha) Regards, Nick Bishop Analyst Programmer Services Division _________________________________________ Logica Ground Floor, 436 Elgar Road Box Hill VIC 3128 Australia T: +61 3 9892 0497 (direct) F: +61 3 9898 6270 M: +61 438 366 342 E: mailto:nick.bishop@logica.com http://www.logica.com Please help Logica to respect the environment by not printing this email / Pour contribuer comme Logica au respect de l'environnement, merci de ne pas imprimer ce mail / Bitte drucken Sie diese Nachricht nicht aus und helfen Sie so Logica dabei, die Umwelt zu schützen. / Por favor ajude a Logica a respeitar o ambiente nao imprimindo este correio electronico.
