Have a nice day.

...

It doesn't mention postcodes at all (possibly because I'm running 2.5.5 Thomson image?).
From memory, ntpdate is just a symbolic link to fixtivotime on the UK2.5.5 image. The easiest solution is to replace it with the newer version used on the US image. Pete posted a version here a while back:

02124 Pacific/Auckland

So that should all be fine.
Yep, that looks good. The blank space between 02124 and Pacific *must* be a tab (i.e. not a bunch of spaces), and there *must* be a new line character at the end of the line.

If that's being run somewhere, would it make a difference?
Can you please check "http://IPaddress/mfs/Setup" to make sure the TimeZone and DaylightSavingsPolicy are actually in there. This is what Skolink was trying to show you, but the settings are in a different location on the UK tivo! If those two variables don't exist then you'll need to manually run "set_NZ_Timezone..." to set them. (This only needs to be done once).

I don't have that script either and I'm running a UK2.5.5 image! That spelling mistake must have been from a local addition on the latest release of the image!
