Setting the time zone in FreeBSD

August 7, 2007 at 4:27 am · Filed under FreeBSD

Couldn’t figure out how to set the timezone on my FreeBSD router/server box.

Found a mailing list post that suggested copying the appropriate file (in my case, PST8PDT) from /usr/share/zoneinfo to /etc/localtime. It worked well.. probably not perfect, but ;)
