  • Ezycom TZ

    From Alterego@21:2/116 to Tiny on Saturday, September 07, 2019 00:54:48
    Hey Tiny,

    Since you use ezycom, was wondering if you know how to set TZUTC up for it?

    IE: It posts messages as coming from UTC, when infact I'm GMT+10.

    Is there a way?

    In your autoexec.bat (or if windows in the system control panel where
    you set paths) add a SET TZ=xxxx ie: mine is SET TZ=EST5EDT

    I ASS U ME it's getting the time zone from that as that's the only
    thing I configure and it does have it correct for me here.

    Yeah, I've tried TZ and TZUTC - and no change. I even tried your TZ that you gave me.

    Actually when I look at your message, it says that it is posted in UTC - is your system time local or UTC?

    Notice in the when_written it has 0000 for the timezone, although not sure why mine says 1258...
