In Debian you can set the timezone with tzconfig. I don't know about the
other distributions. When I call TimeZone.getDefault().toString() it returns
the following:
java.util.SimpleTimeZone[
id=EST,
offset=-1800,
dstSavings=360,
useDaylight=true,

That should work, but I would have to do it in every program. I thought Java
was supposed to read that information from the computer. As far as I know
the JDK should get the default timezone from the computer it is running in.
What if I run the program in London, or California? Would I

How do I change from Eastern Daylight Time to Eastern Standard time. As far
as I know Calendar.getInstance() returns the default calendar information
for the machine. Right now my Linux machine is EST but Java returns EDT. I
though that by changing in in Linux it would change the JDK too. Is there
How do I change the daylight savings time. Is there an export I have to add.
My zone is EST but without daylight savings time. I changed in Linux but
Java still sees it the TimeZone.toString() returns the following:
java.util.SimpleTimeZone[
id=EST,
offset=-1800,
dstSavings=360,

Hi,
I'm using the glibc version of jdk1.1.7v1a on a RH 5.2
system with glibc 2.0.7.
When trying to run some programs, I'm getting this message:

I have the /etc/localtime link to /usr/share/zoneinfo/Asia/Taipei,
which is reported as CST under date command and the offset is GMT+8
(uh...confilict with /usr/share/zoneinfo/US/Central ??).
The GMT+8 is the TimeZone CTT. I'm so confused why the zoneinfo are different
under OS and java.

user.timezone to _my_ timezone instead of arbitrarily picking EST. Why
isn't Linux??

Hello all,
I have a question about the timezone settings:
My Linux box is using local CST time, but the java.lang.Calendar or
java.lang.Date always report CDT...
Here is my program:

Look at java.util.TimeZone.

(/bin/date) the date I see is corrent, but when I use in Java 'Data d =
new Date()'. The reported time is one hour late. In Linux the CET is
reported (I live in the Netherlands) as wanted but Java reports the UTC.

Greetings Folks,
I have a question regarding the Calendar and TimeZone classes. When a
TimeZone object is instaniated and getDefault is called it returns GMT
time, and any calls for time are based on GMT. The machine is in Alaska
and the TZ information is set to Alaska Time.
