Lu - you did not say what version you are running Here, version 281 works fine You say east coast time, but it's actually New_York cd /etc cp localtime localtime.orig ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/New_York localtime Ken From: app_rpt-users-bounces@ohnosec.org [mailto:app_rpt-users-bounces@ohnosec.org] On Behalf Of Lu Vencl Sent: Sunday, August 21, 2011 10:40 AM To: app_rpt-users@ohnosec.org Subject: [App_rpt-users] Time Zone issue I think there MIGHT be a bug with regards to the time zone setting for the East Coast. All of my nodes read the correct time when I type date from root, but Asterisk is reporting 4 hours behind. Example: Aug 21 06:40:36] NOTICE[2818]: chan_echolink.c:2484 do_el_directory: Directory pgm done downloading(partial,compressed), 342 records KA4EPS*CLI> exit [root@KA4EPS ~]# date Sun Aug 21 10:40:52 America/NewYork 2011 [root@KA4EPS ~]# I think I once changed it to Central Time zone and it then became 1 hour behind as expected if I recall correctly. Not sure what to change here if someone could offer guidance. I looked at system.conf and it shows TimeZone=-5.0 which would be correct. Or am I supposed to set the system clock to GMT perhaps? Thanks KA4EPS
