How To Change The Timezone In Linux

Firstly you should log in as root, and run `date`. This will show you the current time, date and timezone and then backup your current timezone setting

mv /etc/localtime /etc/localtime-old

Create a symbolic link the timezone you want from /usr/share/zoneinfo to /etc/localtime.

For example:

ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/London /etc/localtime
