RE: Changing server timezone

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Instead of replacing the /etc/localtime file, rename this file to *.old (or
delete it if you really want) and create a symlink to the appropriate file
in /usr/share/zoneinfo.  For example:  

  ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/New_York  /etc/localtime


HTH!

Hi,

I need to change the timezone on a server.

Is all I need to do is copy the appropriate file from
/usr/share/zoneinfo over the top of /etc/localtime and reboot?
