run linuxconf, will work as GUI or in a text
window. scroll to the bottom and select the
date &time. You should find a timezone list there

After changing the time zone and activate change, I went back to the console and type "date" it still show as CST instead of PST.

It's probably a good idea to reboot after this change to allow the OS to pick up the new Timezone. The shell you are running certainly would not pick up the new environment changes without being re-execed at least.

For some reason this method works. The above method should work too, but It doesn't.
