Time zones are special settings, which are used to change Universal Time Clock (UTC) to a local time.

What we need is to install a tzdata package.

# poldek -u tzdata

Now edit the /etc/sysconfig/timezone file.

TIMEZONE="Europe/Warsaw"

Time zones can be found in /usr/share/zoneinfo folder.

To apply changes - restart a timezone service

# service timezone restart
