- This question was asked recently, but was left unanswered/misunderstood:
-
- I am having problems with date returning my time in CST vs GMT. For
- example, if the correct time is 23:00 CST: I would try typing:
- date -s "23:00 CST" and then date outputs: Sun Jan 24 05:00:00 GMT 1993, the
- time correctly specified as GMT, but I can't get date to output "23:00
- CST". Is there a way to do this, or do I just have to live with seeing
- either the time in GMT or the local time specified as GMT?
