I was wondering if anyone knows how to change the server time. I am in the Midwest and I notice that most events seem to run after I am bed (like 3-6am), I am needing to set the server time to EST, my dedicated server is set to Central time in Illinois. Any way of doing this? Thanks in advance.

It seems that every time I restart the vmware redhat server it resets the time back to something weird. I am also still showing in the game up by map Jade Time: nothing there, and Real Time: 00:19 which is right.

Any ideas to get the server to keep the right time during a reboot?

If your host time is correct, you can set the following .vmx configuration file option to enable periodic synchronization:

tools.syncTime = true

By default, this synchronizes the time every minute. To change the periodic rate, set the following option to the desired synch time in seconds:

tools.syncTime.period = 60

For this to work you need to have VMWare tools installed in your guest OS.

See for more information
