Linux Change Timezone

New page

Change Timezone from: [http://www.wikihow.com/Change-the-Timezone-in-Linux Change the Timezone in Linux]

* Logged in as root, check which timezone your machine is currently using by executing `clock`. You'll see something like "Mon 17 Jan 2005 12:15:08 PM PST -0.461203 seconds", PST in this case is the current timezone.
* Change to the directory to <code>/usr/share/zoneinfo</code>, here you will find a list of time zone regions. Change to the most appropriate region, if you live in Canada or the US this directory is the "Americas" directory.
* If you wish, backup the previous timezone configuration by copying it to a different location. Such as <code>`cp /etc/localtime /etc/localtime-old`</code>.
* Create a symbolic link from the appropiate timezone to <code>/etc/localtime</code>. Example: <code>`ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Amsterdam /etc/localtime`</code>.
* If you have the utility <code>rdate</code>, update the current system time by executing <code>`/usr/bin/rdate -s time.nist.gov`</code>.
* Set the hardware clock by executing: <code>` /sbin/hwclock --systohc`</code>
