    Go to Admin CP > Options > and set the time offset based on how many hours your server is different from GMT. Then go into your User CP > Edit Options and set the time offset based on how many hours you are different from GMT.

        You mean you need to change the clock from Linux? If so, log in as "root" and type in 'date -s "21-Jun-2001 17:11:00" ; hwclock --systohc' and that will change the system time.

          The server according to the admin is set to Singapore Time....i.e GMT +8, thus I set the board time to be GMT +8.

          But after that when I set under profile, my time offset as GMT+8 too, the time display actually display +12 hours more..

          So lets said its now 8.01 am 22 June 2001, the board display 8.01 PM 22 June 2001....

          I had to set to GMT + 4 to be correct timing....

          Is this the only work around to be done?

            I edited my Profile (Edit Options) ... and set GMT+1, too.

            That works fine ....

            But if I logout from the board .... the Board runs under GMT ...

            Alle Zeitangaben in WEZ. Es ist 13:10 Uhr.
