'date' doesn't change /etc/localtime does it?
man date
ENVIRONMENT TZ Specifies the timezone, unless overridden by command line parameters. If neither is specified, the setting from /etc/localtime is used.
Thanks, but that isn't what I asked, nor does it address the original question by the poster. The original question was how to change the system timezone (which is what `system-config-date` does), not just alter the system time (which is what `date` does). I was trying to point out that your solution wasn't for his question in a polite manner.
