Hi,

 

You may want to give the steps outlined here a spin:

Basically you need to create a .reg file and merge this with the registry of

all your machines. You will then need to create a .vbs script to reload the

TimeZoneInformation registry key.

Net Time problems. Daylight Savings etc

 

Hello,

My DC is 2000 SBS

Workstations are XP SP3 different ages and configurations

Client software requires users to have local admin rights (Uggh)

I am in Aus GMT +10

Daylight saving has started earlier than usual (About 3 weeks I think) so

we are GMT +11

All servers and workstations have the same regions, time zones, and

daylight savings settings.

The DC and other servers show the correct time

Some workstations show the correct time

Other Workstations show GMT +12 (I think is is Local time + daylight

savings on server + daylight savings on local because if i remove the local

savings time the machine is correct)

I cannot see any reason why some are correct and some are not

Login scripts run a net time set from the DC

If I run a net time \\server /set /yes I get both Current time and Local

time for the server. Some workstations choose the current and others choose

the local.

As a result some users have changed times manually and now Outlook is all

messed up with appointments.

Any ideas?
