How to change default date setting system wide

Hi

Can i set de date so that it will give date month year system wide?
If i use Thunderbird for instance the date is marked 1/6/24 i want it to be 6/1/24

Code:

ls -l /etc/localtime gives 

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 36 Nov 28 14:06 /etc/localtime -> /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Amsterdam

Thanks

What do you have in /etc/profile.d/lang.sh ? If you don't want 'export LANG=nl_NL.utf8', you can set it only for time: 'export LC_TIME=nl_NL.utf8'.

All times are GMT -5. The time now is 03:56 AM.
