.B setregdomain

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
bc192bb |
setregdomain sets the regulatory domain for your system; it takes no
|
|
|
bc192bb |
arguments and is normally called via system script (eg, udev) rather
|
|

d318fa4 |
than manually by an administrator.
|
|

The regulatory domain is represented by an ISO / IEC 3166-1 alpha2
|
|
John W. Linville |
de35537 |
country code. By default, setregdomain attempts to determine
|
|
John W. Linville |
de35537 |
the appropriate country code by examining the target of the
|
|
John W. Linville |
de35537 |
.IR /etc/localtime
|
|
John W. Linville |
de35537 |
symbolic link. That information is used to look-up the matching
|
|
John W. Linville |
de35537 |
country code in the
|
|
John W. Linville |
de35537 |
.IR /usr/share/zoneinfo/zone.tab
|
|
John W. Linville |
de35537 |
file.
|
|
John W. Linville |
de35537 |
|
|
John W. Linville |
de35537 |
The country code look-up may fail. This could be due to faulty
|
|
John W. Linville |
de35537 |
or incomplete information in the
|
|
John W. Linville |
de35537 |
.IR /usr/share/zoneinfo/zone.tab
|
|
John W. Linville |
de35537 |
file, or the use of an actual file rather than a symlink for
|
|
John W. Linville |
de35537 |
.IR /etc/localtime
|
|
John W. Linville |
de35537 |
, among other possibilities. In those cases the system
|
|
John W. Linville |
de35537 |
administrator should define a COUNTRY environment variable in the
|
|
John W. Linville |
de35537 |
.IR /etc/sysconfig/regdomain
|
|
John W. Linville |
de35537 |
file. This value will be used as the country code and the country
|
|
John W. Linville |
de35537 |
code look-up will be skipped.
