Thanks but unfortunately that did not help. It looks like the default
dir for 'zic' was /usr/share/zoneinfo. So when I ran 'zic', it  created
directories under /usr/share/zoneinfo as below:

-rw-r--r--    1 root     root          837 2007-03-07 15:14 PST8PDT
drwxr-xr-x    2 root     root         1024 2007-03-07 15:14 Pacific
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root          837 2007-03-07 15:14 MST7MDT
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root           56 2007-03-07 15:14 MST
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root           56 2007-03-07 15:14 HST
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root          837 2007-03-07 15:14 EST5EDT
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root           56 2007-03-07 15:14 EST
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root          837 2007-03-07 15:14 CST6CDT
drwxr-xr-x    2 root     root         1024 2007-03-07 15:14 Atlantic
drwxr-xr-x    5 root     root         3072 2007-03-07 15:14 America

Looks like I had a directory called 'US' under /usr/share/zoneinfo which
had

-rw-r--r--    3 root     root          125 2003-09-23 12:06 Samoa
-rw-r--r--    2 root     root         1017 2003-09-23 12:06 Pacific
-rw-r--r--    3 root     root          877 2003-09-23 12:06 Mountain
-rw-r--r--    2 root     root          549 2003-09-23 12:06
Indiana-Starke
-rw-r--r--    2 root     root          130 2003-09-23 12:06 Hawaii
-rw-r--r--    4 root     root          286 2003-09-23 12:06 East-Indiana
-rw-r--r--    3 root     root         1267 2003-09-23 12:06 Eastern
-rw-r--r--    2 root     root         1279 2003-09-23 12:06 Central
-rw-r--r--    2 root     root          130 2003-09-23 12:06 Arizona
-rw-r--r--    2 root     root          840 2003-09-23 12:06 Aleutian
-rw-r--r--    2 root     root          839 2003-09-23 12:06 Alaska
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root          811 2003-09-23 16:21 Michigan

I assume I need to get the file 'Detroit' to appear as 'Michigan' under
US. Not sure what options I need to use.

Thanks
