Hi everyone, Newbie on allstar,no linux expert.Trying to follow these recommended commands for adjusting the time in my node. Adjusting the Time Zone By default ACID is configured for the US Pacific time zone. The file /etc/localtime controls which time zone the system thinks it is in. All of the time zone files the rest of the world are located in /usr/share/zoneinfo. To change the time zone, find the time zone file you want to use, and make a soft link to it like this: cd /etc cp localtime localtime.orig ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/Australia/Victoria localtime You can check to see that the time zone is now correct by using the date command from the shell. Can someone give me a hint on how to do this? All help will be appreciated.Thanks Alberto, node 41355 73s KP4AP

Got a tkr 750 waiting for a spot, and is already tuned to 147.120 + And my friend MSR2000 is failling on him.. So I was wondering if he could use my tkr-750 for his frequency 146.790 - with out having to retune the repeater cause it is temporary but still have fair/good performance out of the tkr750?
it is a large difference switching from RX 147.720 to 146.190 (1.530 mhz) but is it that much too large?
Thaks for your feedback..
Alberto, You do exactly the commands you gave - here is some more detail... At the linux prompt typecd /etc cp localtime localtime.orig This copies the existing localtime file to localtime.orig This is not really necessary but should you ever want to return it to original it is there. Then look at the directory where the time zone files are stored. ls /usr/share/zoneinfo/ You should see something like this - Africa Chile GB Indian Mideast posixrules US America CST6CDT GB-Eire Iran MST PRC UTC Antarctica Cuba GMT iso3166.tab MST7MDT PST8PDT WET Arctic EET GMT0 Israel Navajo right W-SU Asia Egypt GMT-0 Jamaica NZ ROC zone.tab Atlantic Eire GMT+0 Japan NZ-CHAT ROK Zulu Australia EST Greenwich Kwajalein Pacific Singapore Brazil EST5EDT Hongkong Libya Poland Turkey Canada Etc HST MET Portugal UCT CET Europe Iceland Mexico posix Universal Choose the one that applies to your zone - I think you are Puerto Rico so you would then look at the America directory and listed there is Puerto_Rico So the entire path would be - /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Puerto_Rico Now make sure you are in the /etc directory - cd /etc Then create a link of that file to localtime - ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Puerto_Rico localtime Remember case is important! Then do a date command and hopefully see you r local time - date Wed Nov 5 14:51:06 EST 2014 73 Doug WA3DSP http://www.crompton.com/hamradio From: alberto_e_puig@hotmail.com To: app_rpt-users@ohnosec.org Date: Wed, 5 Nov 2014 14:12:34 -0500 Subject: [App_rpt-users] Recomendeded commands for ajusting the time in my node.

Doug, Ian; Thanks very much for your advice.Run those time zone commands and after running the date command, now I have the node showing "Nov 6 08:50:17 UTC 2014" One hour earlier than my local time (showing actual US eastern time). Have I overlook something?
