Setting or changing the current timestamp in Linux OS is as easy as counting 1 to 3. To know this steps, just continue reading on.
Timestamps in Linux is set through /etc/localtime . It's link to /usr/share/zoneinfo/ directory. In there you can find different timezones in which you belong. Some of the zones under zoneinfo/ directory are, Asia , Astralia, Europe, etc.. You can find your place in this format, Continent / Place. To give you an idea, it goes like this: ex. My country is Philippines. ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/your/zone /etc/localtime I replace my zone with Asia / Manila since I'm from The Philippines. So the complete command is : #ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/Asia/Manila
If you're using old systems, the path for your zone may be /usr/lib/zoneinfo.
