Re: HELP unable to update for DST!!

These entries don't exist. Please tell me, do I need to add them? If yes do
I just use REG_RWORD as the class?

Are You using Regedt32? Highlight the key then click on the Security |
Permissions... Menu on top and verify that you have Read and Full
control on the key. Also click on the Advanced button and highlight the
proper user and click on the View/Edit button. Make sure that you have
allowed permissions on all entries:

Query Value
Set Value
Create Subkey
Enumerate Subkeys
Notify
Create Link
Delete
Write DAC
Write Owner
Read Control

You can't do security with Regedit, you have to use Regedt32.

I've been in there looking at that, nothing comes to mind as being an obvious
security setting. There's

(default)
ActiveTimeBias
Bias
DaylightBias
DaylightName
DaylightStart
StandardBias
StandardName
StandardStart

Which key is the security key?

Use regedt32.exe and check the security settings on:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation

After running the tzedit tool without any problem, when I tried to go into
the date/time in control panel I got ""You do not have the proper privilege
level to change the system time." I was logged on as the administrator at
the time who should have all the privileges needed to do something so simple.

I tried that exhaustive 19 page bit too on KB914387 and got the same result.

In secpol.msc I can see where the "Change system time" is granted to the
"Power users" and the power users group doesn't even have anyone in it. I
then added the administrators to the power users group, which still didn't
solve the problem.

I also tried adding administrator to the "change system time" and that
didn't do it either.

I've got to find a solution to this problem. Does anyone know what I can
do? This is happening on one of my W2K servers as well, and I put a post in
that group yesterday and still haven't gotten any replies. I'm hoping
someone knows what I can do because I don't think Microsoft will support W2K.
