Allow the ability to specify timezone #9

Closed groob closed 10 years ago

groob commented 10 years ago

Currently there is no documented way to specify which timezone to use.

dayglojesus commented 10 years ago

No, not specifically, but you could use an Execs Raw Constructor and systemsetup: managedmac::execs man systemsetup

How do you accomplish it now? Is there a better method?

@groob Any further comments on this? Is there a more programmatic solution to this you'd like to see?

groob commented 10 years ago

I thought a bit more and realized that i don't actually want to enforce a timezone on the laptops that I manage. If I did, I'd probably use an exec if I had to.

Currently I'm setting the correct timezone using a pkg that gets installed at boot, and I allow the user to change it if they wish. https://github.com/whitby/mac-scripts/tree/master/setTime

Okay, sounds good! I will close this. Thanks.
