Some javascript/style in this post has been disabled (why?)
Hi All I can’t seem to get the timezone command to display the
correct time I’m running fedora 11 and mrtg 2.16.2 I am on CET (central European time) GMT +2 I monitor systems across 4 different time zones If I don’t use the timezone command it display my local time
if I use the timezone command its 2 hrs behind my local time I have tried using Amsterdam, Europe or GMT+2 it doesn’t
matter it is still the wrong time Any ideas on how t get this to display the correct time Thanks _______________________________________________ mrtg mailing list [hidden email] https://lists.oetiker.ch/cgi-bin/listinfo/mrtg |

Can we have some more information?
I know this /can/ work with devices in
different timezones and their graphs displaying relative to the device’s
timezone rather than the MRTG server’s timezone. Making it display
relative to the browser’s timezone is a bit harder. Steve From:

1.
I installed MRTG as
per the documentation from MRTG it didn’t ask for RRDTool 2.
I selected my
location during the install of fedora I haven’t done anything else since
then 3.
Timezone[myIPaddress_1]:Amsterdam,
Europe … and the other Timezone[myIPaddress_1]London,
Europe have also tried GMT+1/ GMT+2 doesn’t matter it
only gives GMT on both (for Amsterdam 2 hrs out) 4.
How do I tell if I am
using a front end I view the graphs from a web browser on
other PC’s usually windows 5.
If I don’t use
“timezone” the graphs are set to the local time of the server
if I do use “timezone” the graphs are set to GMT regardless of what
I try to tell it Also is there a way once this
works of MRTG automatically changing from summer to winter time. Date does
differ from country to country Nick Can we have some more information?

If you have no RRDTool , then you are
running in Native mode (the graphs are re-created ever time MRTG polls) and
therefore have no frontend. You only need a frontend if you are running
in RRD Mode, as then the graphs are only re-created on demand. MRTG will inherit the timezone
configuration from the Operating System, unless you override it. If you
override it, you need to give the new timezone name in a recognised format. The timezone name can include
specification of summer time; if so, then this will automatically be handled by
the system time routines (IE you get all this for free!) To find out how to specify the timezone
correctly, in Fedora/RHEL use the command ‘tzselect’. This
runs you through a bunch of menus and finally outputs the value you should use
to specify the timezone you selected. In your case, for Timezone[targetname]: Europe/Amsterdam and this will be converted by the OS
routines to the correct timezone rules. The timezone name is case
sensitive and punctuation/space sensitive and should be given EXACTLY as
specified else it wont work (in your example, you replaced the / with a comma
and so it failed and defaulted to GMT) Other operating systems will need to
specify things differently; for example, under AIX Auckland’s timezone is
specified as “NZST-12NZDT,M9.5.0,M4.1.0” Steve From:
