Hello, I noticed something unusual today. If I "du" a small file (couple of bytes) in CentOS 5, it tells me the file is using 8kb, while I was expecting 4kb which is the block size I'm using. I tried this on several CentOS 5 machines, both x86_64 and i386: $ echo test >test.txt $ ls -l test.txt -rw-rw-r-- 1 filbranden filbranden 5 Mar 11 17:24 test.txt $ du -h test.txt 8.0K

Hello, I have a problem configuring the timezone on a CentOS 5.5 server. I would like the timezone to be Europe/Paris. I have followed the steps described here: http://www.wikihow.com/Change-the-Timezone-in-Linux I think I have changed the appropriate configuration files ( /etc/localtime, /etc/sysconfig/clock ), but the output of the ?date? command still indicates the timezone is EST. [root

Hello Everyone, The timezone is set correctly on the OS America/Toronto: mv /etc/localtime /etc/localtime.bak cp /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Toronto /etc/localtime I even tried adding the timezone setting to sip.conf: timezone=America/Toronto However. Asterisk wants to be in Bucharest? Thinking about it, I want to be in Bucharest! Cheers, Nick.

Hi, I have a Centos 5.5 server with no GUI installed. I have several times changed the timezone by copying the correct file to /etc/localtime, however something keeps changing it back. I'm not sure if this is a yum update or what. Without installing the graphical tools, how can I update the timezone in such a way that the /etc/localtime file won't keep getting clobbered. Thank

(I reported the test failure mentioned below to R-help but was advised that this list is the right one to address the issue; in the meantime I investigated the matter somewhat more closely, including searching recent R-devel postings, since I haven't been following this list.) Last May there were two reports here of problems with Sys.timezone, one where the zoneinfo directory is in a

Hello, As discussed on the centos-users list, I would like to create some pages on the CentOS Wiki with instructions on how to set up your environment to build RPMs and how to rebuild RPMs. This content today exists here: http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/I_need_the_Kernel_Source#head-a8dae925eec15786df9f6f8c918eff16bf67be0d I would suggest creating these two: 1)

Hi all, I have been using Red Hat for a very long time and run CentOS 4 on some of my production servers. One of the things that has bugged me for a long time is the fact in the Time Zone configuration there is not a selection for UTC or GMT. As a work around I have been linking the /etc/localtime -> /usr/share/zoneinfo/UTC which works, but when Yum auto updates to a new version it

Hi CentOS 5.3 with latest updates. I have a problem with the time zone on dedicated server. I had to setup the timezone using system-config-date to "Europe/London" and "System clock uses UTC" == checked # date; date -u; hwclock --show; hwclock --show --utc; zdump /etc/localtime Thu May 7 21:29:47 GMT 2009 Thu May 7 21:29:47 UTC 2009 Thu 07 May 2009 09:29:48 PM GMT

I have a couple questions... I am in Indiana and our time zone is changing. I used to choose America/Indiana/Indianapolis as the zone and we are changing to Eastern. Question 1) Is there a command line only way to change my timezone? I dont have access to X to run system-config-time. Doing a "system-config-time --help" or "system-config-time -h" did not give any information.

Thanks, Timo, that did the trick. Also thanks to Quentin for his reply, though I don't understand any of it. As stated, my knowledge of unix is rather limited... On Thu, 2004-04-29 at

How can i change the timezone on a 4.3 box? This used to be available using the 'setup' utility but seems not anymore. thanks

Apologies for being late to the party with this...

Hi guys, I've run into an odd little problem. We use SquirrelMail as the basis for our webmail. Recently I've had a user complaining that the "Received" time on mail in the Sent folder has changed between logins. The change is always been by +1 hours or -5 hours. While checking, our developer had a time changed by +2 hours. On refresh it changed back. He poked through the code

I just setup CENTOS 4.7 with latest patches on DELL server. I also configured NTP point to out time server. I found /var/log/messages file every 20 to 30 minutes will generate a error message : Mar 15 14:28:15 SER1 ntpd[25037]: sendto(172.29.21.16): Invalid argument Mar 15 14:45:22 SER1 ntpd[25037]: sendto(172.29.21.16): Invalid argument Mar 15 15:02:29 SER1 ntpd[25037]: sendto(172.29.21.16):

One problem with the daylight savings is that they mess with reporting tools that use timestamps. I guess an application could be configured to log UTC instead of local time, but that's not always doable. Also, if you have servers in several different timezones, it's better if all systems follow the same clock. So, I'm thinking it's perhaps better if I just use

I''m in the process of upgrading my existing Rails 2.3.8 app to Rails 3.0.3. One problem that I have encountered is how to make rails 3 read/write date/time data into the DB in localtime. In Rails 2.3.8, commenting out the ActiveRecord timezone settings did the trick, however in Rails 3, that doesn''t work as the default is now UTC. I have tried setting the config.time_zone to
