EET (Eastern European Time) is UTC+2, and hence you should set TZ to "EET -2", not to "EET +2".

Code:

set env(TZ) "EET -2"

doesnt correct time..

If you put in the settings shown to you here into your conf file and they do not alter the time show when using ctcp TIME, there are 2 possible reasons:
1) your bot is "stuffed", recompiling may help
2) if it is your shell; then I suggest discussing it with the admins and if that doesn't work, find another shell (you should be able to have the time displayed how you want)

another way to set this up:

Code:

set env(TZ) "EET +2"

These might help, assuming your shell is linux..If not, try googling "setting timezone" where might be "bsd" or "bash" or whatever your particular case may be.

The time is the time on the box the eggdrop is running on, NOT where you actually live.

you're in EET timezone and the offset is +2 (+3 in daylight saving)

I'm in the US, east coast, my time zone is "EST" (Eastern Standard Time) and the offset here is -5 (minus 5 hours from GMT (Grenwich Mean Time, the 0 point for time zones..) Presumably greece is a few hours ahead of GMT. You can google info about your time zone.
