according to man tzset, "The system time zone directory used depends on the (g)libc version. Libc4 and libc5 use /usr/lib/zoneinfo, and, since libc-5.4.6, when this doesn't work, will try /usr/share/zoneinfo. Glibc2 will use the environment variable TZDIR, when that exists. Its default depends on how it was installed, but normally is /usr/share/zoneinfo." On my system, it's in /usr/share/zoneinfo, but weren't you running Solaris? No idea where it is there. It would be possible to put in custom zones (such as "TI - North Texas Sites"), but you'd have to hack the source so that that drop down box was built with your custom text but the values for each selection were still the same as they are now. >>> The SquirrelMail deployment is going quite well here at TI, v1.4.1 >> >> Did you end up using the Multilogin plugin?
