This seems to be the case running on command line. What you may want to do is setup different Apache virtual hosts, say http://india.nagios.example.com//cgi-bin/status.cgi, http:/// uk.nagios.example.com/cgi-bin/status.cgi, etc and within each of those virtual hosts in Apache, set the TZ variable. Then, from the website, it is obvious which timezone data you are looking at. > I'd also be open to any third-party front ends that may handle > this more gracefully than I might. :) As of right now, I'm using > PHP and PostgreSQL, and will be building the config files with > perl. With Opsview (http://opsview.org), we'd like to incorporate timezone support so that a user can choose their timezone and get data displayed accordingly (http://trac.opsview.org/wiki/RoadMap).
