Set time at command line in Linux
This works for all Linux flavors as far as I know:
The date command is used to set the system clock using the switch -s and the format MMDDhhmmYYYY (where MM=month, DD=day, hh=24-hour hour, mm=minute, YYYY=year)
The following example sets the date to January 5th 2007, 1:15 PM:
# date -s 010513152007
