RE: [sleuthkit-users] TimeZones when configuring Host?

[Surago J. <su...@sj...>]

My initial problem was simply knowing what time zone GMT-0600 actually
was, fortunately I found the following list (However it isn't complete,
and I ended up guessing/assuming that GMT-0600 was CST6CDT)

Definitely some form of Drop box or lookup list would take the guess
work out of these things.

**  NST-12NDT   New Zealand Standard Time
**  ???-11???   GMT+1100
**  EST-10???   Eastern Australia Standard Time

It depends on what values that your OS supports.  The safest setting is=20
to use CST6CDT (because this also takes day light savings into account=20
- GMT-6 does not).   If anyone knows of a list of valid timezone=20
strings, I will make a pull down list for them...
