We have a VDS running CentOS 5.5 that was created and configured with the EDT timezone. I have replaced etc/localtime
with a link pointing to the Australia/Melbourne
(UTC+10) timezone file. Running the date
command displays the correct date and time.
The problem is that cron jobs are being run as if the server was still using the EDT timezone, even after a reboot. e.g. A job that should have run at 1:01AM just ran at 3:01PM.
What have I missed?
