Try "settimezone". Really!  If you are looking for *anything* on your A/UX
system you should ask "apropos" first.

	# apropos timezone
	  settimezone(1M)          - set the local time zone

It works for me.

BTW, make sure that the local time is set correctly (with the date command) 
before you change the timezone.  Some people adjust the time and *then* notice
that the TZ is wrong.
