Re: How can I configure Time Zone Automatically?

Seriously...
Ask and WAIT...

Don't expect an answer within 5 minutes of asking. This is a peer-to-peer
newsgroup that is replicated across thousands upon thousands of other
servers that deice to pick up the feed. Give time for the question to get
out there and get read/thought about/answered.

Posting the same question over-and-over may end up annoying the very person
who might have an answer for you. People can be fairly sensitive with their
time and where/whom they spend it on.

You did not do this, however - don't go multiposting the question in every
available newsgroup. If you feel your question is relevant to more than one
newsgroup, cross-post at least. The multi-posting thing is annoying at best
and is the least efficient way for you to ask and others to answer/read the
question/answers.

Essentially - the Time Zone setting is a registry value. If you create the
registry (*.reg) you need and psexec merge that into the remote computer's
registry - you should be good to go (after a reboot, probably.)

Look in your registry here:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation
and here:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Time Zones

Good luck.
