I followed this KB on Feb 7th:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/914387 (I now realize I should have
let Windows Update take care of this)

I put the registry, script, and command on the active directory
netlogon and it appeared to run fine on all domain computers. I
didn't realize it was going to be handled by a windows update later.
Each computer seems to have processed the windows update as well.
They're all XP SP2 machines.

However, most computers will not recognize the new DST on March 11th.

When I look at the EST registry entry (where we're at), it looks to be
the one it needs to be, according to some of the other web pages I
have visited. I even ran the "rollup" updater referenced here:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/931836/

Still can't get this computer to recognize the new DST. Is there any
type of procedure I can go through to force the new DST on the 20+
computers that don't seem to process the changes appropriately?
 
Disgregard. Problem turned out to be that the new time zone wouldn't
"take" until I reselected it from the list. Then it would become
active and change on the 11th of March.

PITA, but not hard to fix.
