I was close the first time - but just not right. FROM_DATE_TIME=`TZ="America/Los_Angeles" date --date '120 sec ago' +'%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'` TO_DATE_TIME=`TZ="$America/Los_Angeles" date --date '1 sec ago' +'%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'` and my server is set for Indianapolis time. The above worked. Thanks! Jerry
