Hi all,

thanks to all that responded:

"Haywood, Steven" <shaywood@hurricaneseye.com>
Douglas Palmer <palmer@nyed.uscourts.gov>
Davorin Bengez <dbengez@interactive1.hr>
Casper Dik <Casper.Dik@Sun.COM>
Hendrik Visage <hvisage@is.co.za>
  "Glass, David (UDB)" <GlassD@bp.com>
krister bergman <krister.bergman@sun.com>

BTW: /etc/default/init would only get read again after a reboot.
thus to test the TZ variables, do something like:
# TZ=European/Timezone date
      ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Replaced with the correct timezone (You might
need to zic European or something equivalent)

The correct timezone for Germany appears to be CET. One further
important thing to note is that /etc/default/init gets read during
system boot only.

Thanks a lot,

    Andreas
