  1. Stop VPS:
    /usr/sbin/vzctl stop 12345
  2. in HD node, run:
    /usr/sbin/vzctl set 12345 --capability sys_time:on --save
  3. Start VPS:
    /usr/sbin/vzctl start 12345
  4. Enter VPS:
    /usr/sbin/vzctl enter 12345
    mv /etc/localtime /etc/localtime.old
    ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Chicago /etc/localtime
    date 092115442006 (09 = Month, 21 = day, 15 = hour, 44=minutes, 2006 = year)

At the VPS prompt, run the command: date to check your time is right. That's all!
