How to set the date and time - Virtuozzo VPS for Linux
Posted by adminix Labels: Linux, Virtuozzo, VPSAfter several hours of googling, and unfortunately, I'm unable to find out how to set the correct date and time on a Linux VE.
Good new is, I've tested out something that came from my mind and hey, it worked!
Here's what I did.
1. Login to the hardware node using your favorite ssh client. I used putty. It's on my downloads category.
2. I use the date command to check for the current time and date. I also used the command date to adjust the time and clock settings.
e.g. date 061913062008
That means that I want to set the date to June 19, 2008 and the current time is 13:06 or 1:00PM gmt +8.
Not that hard eh? Time to check the VE's if the changes we did to the hardware node had an effect to them. You can use the date command again in checking.
Hope this post help's you save time too.
Ok. So recently, I messed up with my windows 2003 server. I accidentally lost the Master Boot Record (MBR) so that led to the problem. My unit won't boot up. I got this problem after using the laptop in installing linux to a USB flash drive. Anyway, the fix is really simple.
First, you need the Windows 2003 server installation CD. Then a prompt will ask you if you want to install windows etc etc. Hit "R" on your keyboard and this will bring you to the Windows Recovery Console. You will need to select the Windows installation you wish to log onto. So I chose "1" because that's the only primary windows setup I had on the laptop. Immediately after selecting the installation, you will be prompted for the Administrator password. There's no way for you to enter the recovery console if you do not know the password.
Next and final steps.
Type in - fixmbr.
The fixmbr command creates a new boot record. It repairs the master boot record of the boot disk. Please take not that the fixmbr command is only available when you are using the Recovery Console.
Type exit, you should now be able to boot again with no problem. Hope that helps.
