No problem. If you're having problems with it, you might checkout

and

and perhaps post a new message with any symptoms/errors. I'd post it in
microsoft.public.windows.server.general for the most help as it isn't a
networking issue per se.

Hi

The reason we using Tradis is because we have critical time
application installed on the servers, as for the desktop should i
patch them with daylight saving patch or is there a domain settings
i should do to accomplish smooth daylight saving pass.

thanks

Just use the native W32tm service and make sure it's configured
properly to speak to a good NTP server on the internet. I'd leave
everything else be. This is how it's designed to work - you do not
need third party software for this.

Hello
Regarding the daylight savings change which is due to occur UK
Sun 30th March at 1am . Currently all our servers are
synchronised with NTP using an application called Tardis. This
provides time in GMT constantly. we plan to turn Windows daylight
savings off on the servers but the desktops will have daylight
savings automatically updated via their domain controllers.
Will this on work in this configuration ?

Thanks
Backing up a bit - *why* would you use Tardis and turn off your DST
settings? What problems were you having? If you configure your
servers properly they, and your workstations, should all get the
time set perfectly & your AD won't suffer problems because of time
issues.

Note for future reference that it's critical to mention your server
versions & SP levels when you post in these groups,
remember....methods/answers often vary by version.
