When I do the date +%Z I get the timezone. Which currently is EDT.
I am sending information to another system, that says EDT is not a valid

My question is - is there a way to get the non-day-lite savings time
zone ?
For example EST is valid - EDT is not.
Just curious if there is an easy way already present to get a
standard time
zone.
Thanks, - I know weird situation the other end not supported EDT.
# cat /etc/timezone
America/Los_Angeles
oops, sent too soon. thats the canonical time zone. things like CST,
they aren't globally reliable, in China, CST is China Standard Time,
while in the USA its Central Standard Time. OOOPS. there's a bunch
more such conflicts in 3-letter timezones around the world, they had
best be avoided.
