SETUP ===== System clock is set to GMT by default. To change this, you'll have to edit the /etc/sysconfig/clock to set the variable ZONE="filename" where filename is the path of your time file, in /usr/share/zoneinfo/. Then you need to copy "filename" to /etc/localtime. For example, if you want to switch time to French localtime, do the following. - First check if "Paris" is available among the /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/ files. - Then edit the /etc/sysconfig/clock file and change ZONE="GMT" (by default) to ZONE="Europe/Paris". - "cp /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Paris /etc/localtime" Upon rebooting, your system localtime should be set to your value.
