[ossec-list] Re: strftime() on Solaris 8

[oahmet <oahmet@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Leslie,

Thanks for reporting this issue. I'll work on it.
However in order to make ossec-hids work on your environment, you may 
want to edit "src/os_maild/sendmail.c" file and change line 212:

strftime(snd_msg, 127, "Date: %a, %d %b %Y %T %z\r\n",p);
to
strftime(snd_msg, 127, "Date: %a, %d %b %Y %T %Z\r\n",p);
(I mean change %z -> %Z). and install ossec-hids.

Then it will print "timezone name" instead of  "hour offset from GMT".

Best Regards,

Ahmet Ozturk.
