Red Hat Linux no longer includes timetool. The dateconfig utility has replaced timetool. The dateconfig allows the user to change the system date and time, to configure the time zone used by the system, and to setup the Network Time Protocol (NTP) daemon to synchronize the system clock with a time server.
To use dateconfig, you must be running the X Window System and have root privileges. To start dateconfig, use one of the following methods:
On the GNOME desktop, go to the Main Menu Button (on the Panel) => Programs => System => Date/Time Properties
On the KDE desktop, go to the Main Menu Button (on the Panel) => Red Hat => System => Date/Time Properties.
Type the command dateconfig at a shell prompt (for example, in an XTerm or a GNOME terminal). [1]
