Hi,

I had a couple of uses complaining that the forum's time is exactly 1 hour ahead of their local times. This sounds very much like a Daylight Savings Time (DST) issue. Can you please confirm if FUDForm keeps track of DST or not?

Best regards.

Frank

The forum does not need to track DST, it is done by the system automatically when you set the proper timezone inside your profile.

Hi,

Problem solved by changing the forum's time zone to be the same as that of the server (as per /etc/sysconfig/clock).

I've also updated my server's time:

$ /usr/bin/rdate -s time.nist.gov
$ /sbin/hwclock --systohc


Best regards.

Frank
