> I have a forest with 10 DC's, some of them are in other time zones (other states), and they always synchronize with the firts DC in the Forest. Does any one knows how can I disable this option in the DC's that have time difference so they can use his own time?

Internally Windows uses UTC (Universal Time Coordinated), time zone
offset is applied just for visualization purposes so you shouldn't have
any problem with that. Is there any specific issue you are experiencing?
