DST Problem in Terminal Server

[Guest]

I used TZEdit on a 2000 terminal server. The console time is correct BUT a
lot of the users' sessions show the wrong time.

Any ideas?

TIA

Did you change all affected timezones? Have you rebooted? Did you change
the zone to something else, save it, then back again?

I did change and apply a new zone and then changed back and applied. Like I
said, the console time is right, but not half or more of the users. I've
even logged into a session as the domain admin and the time in the session
was off an hour. And I've asked several other users to log in and their time
is right.

I deleted one of the "off-time" user's profile and it didn't change anything.

I have not reboot yet.

Strange...

BTW, thanks very much for your response.

Citrix also has an option to display local time. If the remote user's
DST is not correct, that could be messing up the time they see in
Citrix.

Times are okay on the workstations.

Did they update themselves correctly, or did somebody manually update
it? If the DST rules are wrong, but the user manually updates the time,
Citrix may still show the wrong time. I believe it passes on GMT, and
then uses Windows to convert it to local time.

I used TZEdit for the 2k Pro systems and the 2k servers. The rest are a
mixture of XP Pro, which was updated via MS's updates - and are displaying
the correct time, and Win98 which were manually updated by the date applete.

I'm not using the Citrix time option for any w/s UNLESS it is activated by
default.
