/usr/share/zoneinfo/asia/saves the system's various time zone information

/etc/localtime Save current system time zone and time information

[Email protected] ~]# Cp/usr/share/zoneinfo/asia/shanghai/etc/localtime
Cp:overwrite '/etc/localtime '? Y
[[Email protected] ~]# Date
Sat Oct 1 02:20:03 CST 2011//Change to CST
[Email protected] ~]# date-r
Sat, Oct 02:21:45 +0800
Then reset the time.

We can also modify the commands in the RH system by:
[Email protected] ~]# tzselect//Tzselect–select a time zone

More humane, can be directly modified according to the prompts.
