Hello,
I lease a VPS using openvz (CentOS 5) where I am having difficulty setting time correctly to my desired timezome (America/Los_Angeles). At 10:48am PDT, my server shows 6:57pm - both the timezone and the minutes are incorrect although date display show the correct timezone as follows
[root@server /]# date
Tue Jun 17 18:57:51 PDT 2008
I can't set time even under root as shown below
[root@server /]# date 06171026.10
date: cannot set date: Operation not permitted
My questions are
1. What are the best hardware clock settings for a vps provider? Should it sync with time server regularly? Should it be set to UDT or any local timezone would do?
2. What are the best clock settings for a vps lessee beyond setting own timezone?
