Re: Changing time zone on AD Domain Controllers

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



One of the crappy applications using local time is Outlook.
Well, in fact, Outlook is doing the right way. If you change time zone, Outlook appointments will shift in time.

No.

Computers maintain the time in UTC internally. TZ and DST changes do not have impact on the internal workings; it is simply for displaying the internal time in a format that a human can comfortably deal with. Now if you have crappy apps that do everything in localtime, those might have an issue.

need to change time zones on a few AD domain controllers. Are there any
risks involved with this, as far as authentication, or replication with
other DC's in different time zones?

thanks!
