Daylight Savings Time (DST) 2

[salc76]

Is there any DST change update available for Windows 2000 Server SP4 and Windows 2000 workstations? I see updates available for 2003/XP however, nothing for 2000 series.

The link would have to reside back to a Microsoft site before I would download and install any patches to my systems...

GVN, you're going to be waiting a long time, there is no "patch" from Microsoft for Win 2000 as it is out of general support, only security patches, unless you buy extended support ($4k I think)

However, Microsoft has provided instructions on how to update the registry using a variety of methods (scripts, TZEdit tool, etc)

Here is the MS info

What are the reg keys I need to look for to see if the change was successful. Thanks

The easiest check, IMHO, is to download the TZEDIT utility. You can view and/or correct time zones easily, without fooling with the registry. Works on most version of Windows.

BOBUS69,

Look for the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Time Zones key and verify that there are plus signs beside the US time zones. If there are (Dynamic DST), then you're patched, if not, start over.
