How do I change the time/timezone on my Dedicated server?

To change the timezone on your Dedicated server first you need to login as root via SSH. Next, browse to the /usr/share/zoneinfo/ folder in order to check the available timezones. For example, you can type the following to set yours to Parisian time:

cp /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Paris /etc/localtime

You can test the result using the "date" command.
