New Daylight Savings changes for Sydney, Australia.
Hi, With the Olympics being here in a few weeks, we have started Daylight Savings early. However, I am trying to work out how to alter the australiasia Time zone file In /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo to start the Daylight Savings NOW and end as per normal. I was thinking of putting an entry into the file as such: Rule Aus 2000 only - Aug 25 2:00 1:00 Secondly an Entry in the New South Wales area of Rule AN 2000 only - Aug 25 2:00s 0 Finally an entry in the Zone Australia/Sydney as below Zone Australia/Sydney GMTOFF RULES FORMAT [UNTIL] 10:00 Aus EDST 2000 Aug 25 2:00s Of should the last entry be 10:00 Aus EST 2001 Mar lastsun 2:00s Would this alter the system clock appropriately ?? Or could please you give me some information on how to alter the daylight savings date?
