Hi
Thanx for your response. I am setting TZ variable as
given in the documentation.
export TZ="xxx5:30yyy4:30,M10.1.1,M2.1.1"
Its working fine till Dec 31 23:59:59GMT. On Jan 01 00:00:00,
its not taking DST into account at all.
Please tell me some way of setting it across an year boundary.
Thanks,
Robin
