Introduction This document explains how to set your computer's clock from Linux, how to set your timezone, and other stuff related to Linux and how it does its time-keeping. Your computer has two timepieces; a battery-backed one that is always running (the ``hardware'', ``BIOS'', or ``CMOS'' clock), and another that is maintained by the operating system currently running on your computer (the ``system'' clock).
Recently I decided to modify my configuration of Drupal 6. Previously, I had just one site, and I had innocently left everything in the default/ directory. This install in retrospect was easy but not an example of good planning. I later had to do some minor changes when I decided to migrate to multi-site. When it later became clear that I wanted to host multiple sites, I had to move my 'files' directory from inside of /sites/default to /sites/central-america-forum.com.
screen is a terminal multiplexer: it takes many different running processes and manages which of them gets displayed to the user. Think of it as a window manager for your console or terminal emulator. With screen , you can have interactive processes running on your home computer and connect to them from anywhere else to check on their progress.

Linux is growing. It is now used in many everyday gadgets such as cell phones, PDAs, MP3 players, TVs, printers, portable GPS systems and cameras. It's no longer just for systems administrators.
