DST 9.0 AND 9.1 any solutions? 1

[Rhinorhino]

I have read several posts about this and I am wondering if anyone has a solution to easily load in a new file for the next 10 or 20 years?

Most of my 9.0 and 9.1s are not working past 2023. This last DST did not change at all.

Thanks

Here's something I thought about. Is it possible to use an ntp IP address that is specifically tied into a time zone for example Pacific time.

So when DST is in place this particular time zone ntp will reflect the correct changes and any device that logs in for a time check will automatically be adjusted?

Search the forum for other DST posts. Some of the users have posted an updated timezoneinfo.xml file. Avaya also released an update but you need to be able to access their support site to obtain it.

9.1 Manager only supports 10 entries.
Even if you put 50 into the list (Timezoneinfo.xml) it will only consider the next 10.

Upgrade to current release and use the Manager patch which was made available.
At least it does show 11 entries plus the option to add/edit
But no one knows hoe timezone is in regard to DST in the future. Maybe we will not do that anymore.
Even today, there are several changes per year. Maybe not for major countries, but still.

They talk about scrapping the DST nonsense for a couple of decades and so far nothing. Politicians can't organize a 2 car funeral convoy unless they get fame and fortune for it and the DST is not a sexy topic.
Wait until the time format is causing the Y2K38 issue I am going to be 71 so I am still young enough to go hunting for food should all comes to a crashing halt.
