[SOLVED] daemon log with wrong time

[rolcom]

Hi,

My daemon.log file says: 21:46:00
While date will return 23:46:00 and within the Proxmox panel, the server time is also 23:46:00...

I can't find where to change that time, I'd like to fix that as this is affecting my fail2ban and I had to increase the bantime for the time being.

Does anyone have any clue?


Thanks for your time

How are you setting the time zone? If you are setting TZ in a login script or similar it won't affect system daemons.

Try "dpkg-reconfigure tzdata" to set it globally. You'll have to reboot or restart the appropriate daemons afterward.

I was changing the time zone from the panel, but I wasn't rebooting the server. The reboot applied the right timezones to the new entries of the log.

Thanks.
