[05] HOW CAN I CHANGE THE SYSTEM TIME TO REFLECT MY TIMEZONE?
|
|
|
|
You need to set the environment variable TZ with your
|
|
timezone. SDF is set to UTC (universal earth time). If
|
|
you want the system date to be offset to your timezone,
|
|
try the following:
|
|
|
|
$ date
|
|
Wed Jun 23 18:26:20 UTC 2004
|
|
$ export TZ=CST6CDT
|
|
$ date
|
|
Wed Jun 23 13:28:22 CDT 2004
|
|
|
|
CST6CDT will offset system time to US Central time. For
|
|
a listing of timezones, look in /usr/share/zoneinfo
