Setting time and date on the server Print

374

To set the correct time zone on your server first delete the existing one:

rm -f /etc/localtime

And then create a symbolic link to a your preferred time zone, for example:

ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Stockholm /etc/localtime

There is no need to run NTP server inside the virtual server, since we do that for you on the hardware node, so the clock is always correct.
