Hey guys. I know most of the questions are fed based.. but I've got a centos 6.8 from digital ocean testing.. So, bear with me.. In setting up the instance to use EST I did the following steps. Is there anything else I missed... Change the date/time (as root) rm -rf /etc/localtime ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/New_York /etc/localtime ##--set the date to the correct date date -s 'actual/current date' vi /etc/sysconfig/clock ZONE="America/New_York" UTC=false ARC=false I then rebooted, checked that the date cmd displayed the correct date... I'm asking ,as I created a base instance of a Centos 6.8 image.. Digitalocean allows for the generation of "snapshots"/copies. The copies can then be used to generate a clone of the initial instance/droplet. I did all of that, and lo/behold, when I run the date cmd.. I get # date Sat Nov 19 21:45:43 EST 2016 <<< (note the 5 hr ahead diff.. which if i recall is the UTC time) Instead of # date Sat Nov 19 16:45:43 EST 2016 Thanks for the sanity check! _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
