Thanks for all the replies - A number mentioned profiles & exporting TZ etc. which wasn't what I was after (but that was probably my own fault for not being clear enough on my posting!!) Many thanks to Darren Dunham & Jay Lessert, who both basically say that it cannot be done, as TZ is an environment for each individual process. However you could in theory kill any processes that you need to be aware of the timezone setting and then restart it with the TZ set to the new value. i.e. cron, syslog, inetd, sshd, sendmail etc. but this would be a very messy and possibly dangerous method of achieving the new TZ settings. -----Original Message----- From: sunmanagers-bounces@sunmanagers.org [mailto:sunmanagers-bounces@sunmanagers.org]On Behalf Of Barry Deevey Sent: 21 October 2003 16:55 To: sunmanagers@sunmanagers.org Subject: /etc/default/init changes without reboot Hi all, I have made some changes to the TZ variable in /etc/default/init - I was hoping that when I logged out and back in it would pick up these changes, but unfortunately it didn't. Does anybody know of a method of applying these changes without having to reboot the server?? Thanks for any replies, they are much appreciated.
