Yep, that's exactly what I did, which is where I got the idea to use America/Anchorage. Which, I might point out IS a valid TZ variable according to the page you linked, which you apparently didn't bother to read... Sorry, after a response like that, I couldn't resist. At any rate, setting the variable doesn't appear to have any effect. Is Nagios pulling from the BIOS clock rather than the system clock or something? I suppose I could set the BIOS clock to local time, and just tell the system clock that I am in the GMT time-zone, but that would be downright ugly. I would much prefer to find a nicer solution, if one is available. Even if I have to edit the source, I can do that, as long as I know where to look.
