How do I update the timezone on my Linux server?

If your server is reporting the incorrect time (i.e. PDT instead of EDT) you can correct it pretty easily.

1. Login as root
2. cd /etc
3. ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/New_York localtime
4. Run the date command again to confirm the date change
