I am a Windows Engineer and Linux/Unix illiterate.

I need to change the Time zone for my ESX 3.0.1 (9 Host) environment. Most resoluctions are stated in a way that one understands how to run commands and syntaxes.

Can anyone help me to do this step-by-step?

I am a Windows person and am Linux/Unix illiterate.

I have 9 hosts in an ESX 3.0.1 environment and notice I have some servers with -6GMT instead of CDT.

Since all the replies to how to do the change are based on people with Linux/Unix experience, what commands/syntax can I use to make the above change?

Searching the forums for time zone changes will yield several results, these are two good ones.

How can I change the time zone? It's set for UST, but that makes all my reports hard to read.

How does everyone deal with this?
