AlterPath OnSite Administrator’s and User’s Guide
Note: Kerberos authentication depends on time synchronization. Time and
date synchronization is most easily achieved by setting both the OnSite and
the Kerberos server to use the same NTP server.
a. To specify an NTP server, follow the procedure under “To Configure
Time and Date [Expert]” on page 350.
b. To manually set the time and date on the OnSite, follow “To
Configure the Time Zone [Expert]” on page 349.
c. Work with the authentication server’s administrator to synchronize
the time and date between the OnSite and the server.
3. If the OnSite is not located in the PST time zone, set the timezone on the
OnSite.
a. Make a console connection to the OnSite and log in as root,
The root prompt appears.
b. Enter set_timezone.
A list of timezones appears followed by a prompt asking you to enter
a number of a timezone.
