I only recently dealt with this very same thing, Anton.  When I began
running WebTrends over   our logging files, I noticed a time difference due
to an incorrect QUTCOFFSET      value (default value must be GMT).  Due to
light activity, I'm able to process an entire month into a WebTrends report.
I trick WebTrends by changing the time-zone setting on the PC before
starting it (who says two wrongs don't make a right?).  I guess you'll know
what I'll be doing at Midnight on August 1st  ;)

I wonder how many more AS/400's out there have an incorrect QUTCOFFSET
value?

I know this is more appropriate on the Ignite list, but I've been a
long-time reader looking to contribute in some way.

Thanks,
Mark
