Change the date and timezone?

[Crop]

How do I change/configure the date and timezone in Linux from the console?

[Jordan]

You can change the date like this:

# date -s "25 NOV 2008 11:00:00"

Or an easier way:

# date +%Y%m%d -s "20081125"

You can find instructions on changing the timezone here: How to Change the Timezone in Linux - wikiHow
