 Posted: Tue Oct 21, 2003 4:53 pm Post subject: time settings all off |
 |
|
when i made the link to timezoneinfo, it screwed up my time. like right now the time is 1pm but my clock is showing 9:10 THe date is right but the time is way off.
i make a link to /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/New_York
..... ---- JUST CHANGED r.conf after typing the above ---
ok so now i just changed the CLOCK line in rc.conf to "local" does this require a reboot to fix my time or do i have to manually edit my time settings?
Thanks,
Robert
