Actually I already seem to have the correct timezone file, but why is the time wrong? afarber at CentOS-60-64-minimal:~> sudo diff /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Berlin /etc/localtime afarber at CentOS-60-64-minimal:~> date Wed Oct 5 00:35:39 CEST 2011 Should I: chkconfig ntp on service ntp start Or is the reasone elsewhere? Sorry for the basic questions, I'm new to CentOS 6 Regards Alex
