I'm sorry I know this isnt about ntp, but i need your help. The
cuestion is:
When i change the TZ variable in unix in /etc/TIMEZONE, it just see the
effect when i reboot the system. Is there another way that unix/solaris
take the change in the TZ variable without restarting the system?


The local time displayed is determined on a per process basis by the value of the TZ environment variable for that process.

$ TZ="US/Eastern"; export TZ

Normally each process takes the default in /etc/TIMEZONE but each user is at liberty to set his own. This is a necessary feature since a system might have users in several different time zones!!

If you reset the TZ variable for each process you care about, you will not need to reboot.

ISTR that you are located in the Dominican Republic. Since you don't use daylight time, you should not need to change the time zone once it is correctly set.
