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.

Which is why I always symlink /etc/localtime Not only does it solve these issues, but it makes it very clear which timezone is selected! -----Original Message----- From: centos-bounces at centos.org [mailto:centos-bounces at centos.org] On Behalf Of Aleksandar Milivojevic Sent: Monday, November 07, 2005 2:45 PM To: centos at centos.org Subject: Re: [CentOS] New Standard/Daylight time-change

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

Who is tired of dealing with DST changes? I have asterisk running on FC4, FC4 has been patched and shows the correct MDT timezone and time. Email notifications of voicemail show the message time an hour early (standard time, not daylight). This si the time in the message body, not the email delivery time, so it is coming form asterisk wrong. I did a reload after correcting the

Hi All, My kit : Centos4.4 + Postfix + SA + ClamAV (not that its relevant) General question - Does anyone know of a product which can take a folder / mbox of mail (spam, ham, virus infected stuff, scam mail and hoaxes) and "replay" it back against a test server to determine the servers ability to filter? I have looked at some low level (IP) packet replayers, but i cant really find

Hi All, I used to always do a minimal install with v4.4, and wget (and other tools) was included. With v5 if i untick *everything* in the installation (incl "base") so that i can install from 1 cd, wget is not included. I couldn't make sense of any of the xml or xml.gz files on the installation cd. (/dev/cdrom/repodata/*), although they do mention wget as 'default'

Sorry for the extra info required, but I had digest mode turned on and wouldn't have received the mailing till tomorrow. I have since updated the data manually, but after 'yum update tzdata' was run, the zdump -v for EST5EDT and America/New_York all still showed a date of April 1, instead of March 11. After manually fixing, it is correct. This was mostly a question about why yum

I might be stupid and ask an idiot or offensive question, but here it is: "Why was tzdata-2007h [RHEA-2007:0928-05] only released for CentOS 2, when upstream has released it for all the versions?" The guys from X/OS have released it for 5.0 along with the other updates (on Oct. 9). Are the "enhancements"... "not important" as long as they're not "security

I read a few days back on the list where the tzdata rpm was to take care of the new DST rules. I run CentOS 3 servers, and did a 'yum update tzdata' , but received a 2006a update of the rpm. Is this proper? It sure didn't fix anything. Thanks Steve Campbell campbell at cnpapers.com Charleston Newspapers

Can someone with far more knowledge than me help here? I have a co-worker with a question; " Where should i set the server's hostname? There seems to be multiple places and i don't understand the differences. 1. # hostname mailserver.mydomain.com 2. # echo "127.0.0.1 mailserver mailserver.mydomain.com">>/etc/hosts 3. # vi /etc/sysconfig/network, add

I am installed CENTOS 5.5 on X86. After finish, I tried to apply latest patches. Rpm patch manager say need "dependency" "tzdata-java-20101-1.e15". I search CENTOS 5.5 CD and can NOT find this file. I also search Internet and no result. Can anyone tell me where to download "tzdata-java-20101-1.e15" RPM? Thanks.

greetings, each and every time i run yum or yumex, system time is advanced by 5 hours. this has gone on thru several updates, maybe even upgrades. centos = 6.6 current yum = 3.2.29 yumex = 3.0.5 for awhile, i did not mind resetting clock when i noticed it off. now, it is a pita because when i forget, emails and what ever else i am doing get wrong time stamps. i have searched for

Hi! It appears that there have been some changes to tzdata recently. We run an application that needs the server to stay at GMT. Previously, we used the Casablanca timezone but now there seems to be a 1 hour difference to GMT. I checked the London zone and they seem to change time too. I tried to change the zone to GMT with system-config-date (i'm using command line remotely) but

Hi All, Background: I have HP RAID setups (Smart Array 5, shows up as /dev/cciss/c0d0) on my DL380s, and they run great with CentOS. I have had a drive failure (HDD lights up amber), so I pulled the HDD, replaced it and the RAID controller rebuilt the array in a jiffy - no probs. My question: I cant find anything in the logs to alert me that a drive failed - this makes sense since the RAID

Hi All, This is a general VPN question; PPTP VPNs seem to be very easy to set up with CentOS as the VPN server and the built-in windose client, but how do list members feel about the security vunerabilities reported with the MS implementation? Specifically the 6 problems reported here : http://www.schneier.com/pptp-faq.html or maybe im being paranoid? Would any of you roll this solution out

I have a server with all the x-windows stuff installed. But it's giving me a text based login prompt on the console. I can log onto the console, and run gnome-session and GNOME comes up fine. How do I turn it on so that I get a X-Window GUI login prompt? === Al
