Some useful commands to change date/time/locale:

Configure localization:

Code:
dpkg-reconfigure tzdata


Manually change date/time

Code:
date --set 2007-10-15
=> to set date (yyyy-mm-dd format)

date --set 16:47:30
=> to set time (hh:mm:ss format)


NTP (Network Time Protocol)

Code:
apt-get install ntpdate
/etc/network/if-up.d/ntpdate

OR

ntpdate pool.ntp.org
