You're a UNIX person, Gil. Have you tried:
CALL BPXWUNIX("TZ=CST6CD6 pax -v ...", ...)
If you're using BPXWUNIX(), it invokes the standard UNIX shell via: /bin/sh
-c '....' and so just prefix the actual command with the environment
variables you want to modify for that command. If you want to do that a lot
in a REXX program, then:
EnvVars="TZ=CST6CDT HOME=/tmp X=z "
...
UnixCommand="some command with parms"
CALL BPXWUNIX(Envvars||" "||UnixCommand, ...)
