Hello, I've recently acquired a dedicated server and change it's default timezone from NewYork to Europe/Bucharest. Changed in both WHM server time settings and PHP configuration settings. Everything changed accordingly except cronjob timestamps (saw this in /var/log/cron) which is still in the NewYork timezone for some reason. I tried restarting crond but still the same. Anyone could shed some light on this? Thank you.

  Hello, Does your hardware clock match the same time zone? EX:
  hwclock
  If not, you may need to sync it via:
  hwclock --systohc --localtime
  Thank you.

  Fixed it with the following: /etc/init.d/rsyslog restart /etc/init.d/crond restart Seems the rsyslog and crond have problems adapting to server time-zone changes. The restart did the trick, but only when restarted them both.
