During the install of a new Debian GNU/Linux server I was in a real hurry, so I mistakenly choose a wrong timezone of US/Pacific
As a consequence the server date and time was incorrect and I had to fix that to adjust to the proper server location which of this case was:Europe/London
Here is the quick fix:
debian:~# dpkg-reconfigure tzdata
Next I choose my timezone from the ncurses interface navigating with arrow keys and used ntpdate to synchronize the time for the server like so:
debian:~# ntpdate time.nist.gov
3 Aug 16:02:26 ntpdate[26658]: adjust time server 192.43.244.18 offset 0.000802 sec
Done 😉
