   Yep but I used to have some king of setting for it even if only for this time   
   of year when its set as TZUTC=0100   
      
   May be it went redundant when I switched from OS/2 and Maximus to Linux and   
   mbse?   
      
   Just cannot remember, and I'm only 65 in June.   
   That does start to worry me :)

   Yep, but see above!

   As I said it was in use on the old MSDos based s/w, can't recall is used in   
   windows but would guess yes.   
      
   Must have a look through the docs for mbse and see if there is any mention of   
   it as its been years since doing so.   
      
   The system is more or less fully automated, just as well as I run multiple   
   services on same box such as httpd, Ftp, Mysql, Postgres, DB/2 servers as well   
   as MS sql 2008 and Oracle in seperate VMs (under VirualBox but only run when   
   required).   
      
   Not bad with a E6600 cpu and 6Gb Ram.
