for example Sydney, Australia

ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/Etc/GMT+11 localtime

have tired that, and it's still 24hrs behind.. weird!

I've tried

usr/share/zoneinfo/America/New_York localtime

And my winscp disconnects.......any help would be great.........

don't forget "In -s"

The following (use either one) is in the same time zone:

ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/New_York localtime

ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/US/Eastern localtime

Anyone have any luck with DST in Australia ? it didn't seem to work well for me, will give it a go again tonight.

for example Sydney, Australia

ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/Etc/GMT+11 localtime

have tired that, and it's still 24hrs behind.. weird!

ok, let's try without GMT thingy...remove folder of /Etc/
and be Australia specific where ### = 1 of 23 following possible values

ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/Australia/### localtime

ACT
Adelaide
Brisbane
Broken_Hill
Canberra
Currie
Darwin
Eucla
Hobart
LHI
Lindeman
Lord_Howe
Melbourne
North
NSW
Perth
Queensland
South
Sydney
Tasmania
Victoria
West
Yancowinna

@chunkhead -

Have you try these specific Australia (along same time zone with Melbourne) such as ACT, Victoria, NSW, Queensland?

Well I guess I messed up......I should have read the entire post......I entered this:
ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/**America/Chicago** localtime

with the actual "**" in the command. Now when I SSH via putty to fix my error it says
"rm: cannot remove `localtime': No such file or directory"

Please help!

Reggie, no
log into via terminal (i guess you have a mac, since you are using cyberduck?)
and type
cd /private/var/db/timezone
rm localtime
ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/**Canada/Mountain** localtime
killall AppleTV

where **Canada/Mountain** replace with
America/Chicago
so

this is your method....

cd /private/var/db/timezone
rm localtime
ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/**America/Chicago** localtime
killall AppleTV

Thanks for posting this. Very useful!
