Keeping the correct server time is crucial for logging, cron jobs, email timestamps, and general system operations. With WHM root access, you can easily view or update your server's time settings.
Note: Only users with root access can change the server time settings in WHM. Reseller accounts do not have access to this section.
1. Log in to WHM as Root
Access your WHM interface using your root credentials.
In the left-hand sidebar or top search bar, type:
- Click on Server Time under the Server Configuration section.
At the top of the page, you’ll see:
Current Time: Displays the server’s current system time.
This reflects the active time zone the server is using.
Under the Configure Timezone section:
Select your preferred Continent/City from the dropdown menu (e.g., Africa/Nairobi, America/New_York, etc.).
Click the Change TimeZone button to apply the new setting.
Note on Time Synchronization
Most cPanel/WHM servers use NTP (Network Time Protocol) to keep time accurate. If you're noticing time drift issues, consider checking your NTP settings.
