Run 'date'. If time zone is not correct, then:
On machines running Debian or Ubuntu:
- dpkg-reconfigure tzdata
On machines running CentOS, Redhat Enterprise, or Fedora:
- tzselect
- # Note the time zone it produces, then adjust any of the commands below to suit:
- If the "timedatectl" command is provided by the operating system, the recommended way is to execute a command like this:
timedatectl set-timezone Europe/London
- For other cases, then execute a command like this one:
cp /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/London /etc/localtime
- # Take note that in some systems /etc/localtime is a symbolic link, then be sure that it points to the correct time zone file.
