timezones via TZ

[hinko.kocevar at cetrtapot.si]

Hi,

I've been trying to set correct timezone for my location - CET-1. The 
problem is, that if I use /etc/TZ instead of exporting TZ variable I 
always get UTC time returned by date. A soon as I export the TZ variable 
from shell date shows correct time.

~ # date
Fri Jan 13 07:23:12 UTC 2006
~ # cat /etc/TZ
CET-1
~ # date
Fri Jan 13 07:23:34 UTC 2006
~ # export TZ=CET-1
~ # date
Fri Jan 13 08:23:44 CET 2006

This is hexdump of /etc/TZ (I know there are some issues with empty 
lines and similar):
~ # hexdump -c /etc/TZ
0000000   C   E   T   -   1  \n
0000006

What am I missing?!

regards,
hinko
