After executing that all was well. I am not sure what it does because before executing tzselect the timezone in /etc/localtime was set correctly and the system date was correct but Asterisk had the wrong time.<br><br>I suspect all one would have to do is a 'tzselect' and not the copying of a timezone file to /etc/localtime which is shown in many places when you Google 'centos timezone'<br id="FontBreak"></font><br><font style="" face="Tahoma">In any event fixed....

Beside me personally ,When I press *81 to have allstar say the time Its says the time but 6 hours later so if its 12 midnight it says 6 am . When I key in the date command to allstar from the terminal It gives me the correct date and time month day and est. The minutes are always correct. So I the time is 12:30 midnight it will say 6:30 am . I also was shown how to use the crontab and that works just fine . So why does the time say its 6 hour later. Can anyone help with this issue please!!!</div><div class="ecxMsoNormal" style="font-size:12pt;"> </div><div><div class="ecxMsoNormal" style="font-size:12pt;">73</div><div class="ecxMsoNormal" style="font-size:12pt;"> </div><div class="ecxMsoNormal" style="font-size:12pt;">Harry KC4RPP</div></div></div><hr>_______________________________________________<br> App_rpt-users mailing list<br> <a target="_blank" href="mailto:App_rpt-users@ohnosec.org">App_rpt-users@ohnosec.org</a><br> <a href="http://ohnosec.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/app_rpt-users" target="_blank">http://ohnosec.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/app_rpt-users</a><br> </div> </blockquote></span> <br>_______________________________________________ App_rpt-users mailing list <a href="mailto:App_rpt-users@ohnosec.org">App_rpt-users@ohnosec.org</a> <a href="http://ohnosec.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/app_rpt-users" target="_blank">http://ohnosec.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/app_rpt-users</a></div> </div>
