[THIN] Re: Time Zone support and thin clients

Thanks.  I am running 6.20.992.  Their docs (NCD) state that time zone
support was in 6.20.895.  I have the settings set correctly (I believe) in
the management software, but you never get to see that setting on the actual
thin client's config anywhere.  Maybe it isn't really downloading to it.  We
already have to break servers up in to time zones and we just acquired a
company in a 3rd time zone that we have no servers in.
 
I doubt I'll get anywhere with NCD since they sold everything to NeoWare
except for ThinPathPC.
 
thanks for the reply.

you may want to check and see if there is a firmware update for the
ThinStars.  I ran in to this with Wyse a while back but then they came out
with a firmware release that gave me control over the terminal's local
clock.  
 
GPO is not going to be able to do anything for you.  Your only other option
would be to just turn off the client time feature completely through the
CMC.

I apologize if this has been dealt with.  I have been going through Citrix's
forums and the archives for this list and have not found the answer yet.

We are just starting to test MetaframeXP here.  We have a 92 server MF1.8
farm now and while doing some of our initial testing we have been unable to
get the local time zone support to work on the NCD ThinSTARs.  I realize
they don't have local clocks on them, but in the NCD Central Management
software there is an extension for time zone support.  We have it set as we
want it to be, be we always get the Pacific time zone when logging in from
the NCDs.  Eastern is what we are after for these users.

We are running on Windows2000 with MFXP FR2. 

Has anyone got local time zone support to work on the thin clients?  Is
there any other way to get this support?  We are currently working on our AD
migration as well.  Anything I can use in there, like GPO, that could get us
out of this as well?

Thanks for any help/suggestions in advance.
