Another option, change the launch mechanizim for your application to a
*.CMD file that set's the client's timezone in the registry as needed
for the session before the app loads.
On a server level you can decide to not use the "farm settings" for
estimating client time as you mentioned. But isolating servers with
settings like that always seems to undermine the whole "load balencing"
concept of MF farms for me.

I need to remove the local time so the software uses the server time so
I guess the best option would be to remove Per Session Time Zone off the
server that has the app published. Currently we have it set in the CMC
to use local time and we need that for other reasons.
Thanks

Isn't the better way to turn off use local time off ica clients? Done
at Farm level....or set a reg key on that server that the app is
on...Which does the same...
REG DELETE "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Citrix\wfshell\Per
Session Time Zone" /f
Hope this helps
Malcolm

The timezone setting can be set on a per user basis in a TS server. It
should be:
Hkey_current_user\controlpanel\international\locale
You can make scripted changes to this regkey on login for your end
users. As an admin, simply check the key first in your session to
confirm the current setting, then within your admin session change the
timezone field to the one you need to support for these remote end
users. A refresh of regedit should now show you the changed value for
this key which can be imported to your users registry on login by a
variety of different script methods.
There is also the option within Citrix XP to try to use the client's
local time. This has to be set on the farm level though if I recall
correctly.

Currently, we have our servers in the East coast and we are running
XPa/FR3 . One particular program is giving us trouble with users in the
West Coast. This program checks the local machine time and compares it
to the server, and if is more then 1 hour off, the program doesn't run.
The vendor gave me the same old story about how it is not support on
Citrix.
Is there a why I can bump the users time up by three hours on there
local machine when they log onto that specific program. Maybe use
tmuser?
Thanks for you help in advance.
