Scott,
I understand automatically adjusting for Daylight Savings Time is not
available with this set up, I just want to do it manually. You mentioned
"the standard I/A Series documentation". Is there a specific manual on this
subject? A search brings up tons of advisories but as one states... "This
Advisory does not apply to I/A Series running WinNT. There are no patches
to support this older OS". ;-(
Brahm,
Thanks for that explanation. I learn something new every day...

Daylight Savings Time
Both the I/A Series and NTP do not support automatically adjusting for
Daylight Savings Time.
If you wish to use Daylight Savings time, make sure your time source is
adjusted for Daylight Savings. When the time source moves ahead or back 1
hour the NTP software will stop updating the host because they will be out
of sync by more than 1000 seconds, as described above. To start the NTP
TimeSync again, you must manually set I/A or the PC to be within 1000
seconds of the Daylight Savings time adjusted time source.
CAUTION: When setting the I/A Series clock back by 1 hour the system may be
unusable for the next hour. Please see the standard I/A Series documentation
for more information on this subject.

Subject: [foxboro] WinNT V6.4 time change DST
Folks,
I am following an old procedure to change time on this WinNT system and
after "Return - Set" the instructions are:
* Modify the file .\TZOffset to contain the seconds from between the
time local (Pacific Time) time zone maintained on the NTP TimeSynch program.
The file contains 28,800 (UTC -8:00). Why would this change?
* Reboot to reset the NTP TimeSync program. Really? Why if the file
doesn't change?
Not familiar with the NTP TimeSync program sooooooo before I experiment on
the Production System.
