Server time adjusted

Server time was off by 1 hour. It's now correct. There might be some slight anomalies with the forum for a short while because of this, but nothing too serious.

I checked my settings to make sure I selected the right time zone, and the forum time is still one hour ahead. I don't know if it has been like this since your post because I just noticed it yesterday.

Well, here it was delayed one hour. Then I checked the daylight savings box, and it got corrected (because we are indeed in daylight savings here in southern Brazil). Not, it is an hour ahead. 

Maybe I should disable daylight savings, even though it's in effect here?

Weird, the server time went off an hour again, as you noticed. Fixed.
Anyway, now it's synched automatically, but I have no idea why it went again off by hour in the first place.

Hmm... I guess this explains why I had to teach someone about rdate and cron jobs...

It's one hour ahead, again (at least here)

Living in a country without "daylight savings" is great. Why, must modern day people move their clocks twice a year when they only need to adjust their own habits? Or at least, their work/study hours... Seems to make more sense than moving the clock.

Oh yes, time on HA looks one hour ahead, where i live time is GMT/UTC -4 all the year.

My time is still messed up too... 

With the Daylight Savings Time adjustment, it's off by two hours. I'm in a GMT-8 zone, during savings time. I've presently set my clock to use Alaskan time and no DST, which "fixes" the problem, but it's wrong.

Artemis3: Where do you live? I live in Canada, and it's nice to have sunlight in the morning. Daylight Savings Time just about gives us light for the 8-5 work day. It's a really handy invention, assuming you're somewhere that needs it. I've lived even farther north before, and then it just starts getting ludicrous, but for most people along the Canada/US border, DST lets us actually be awake during the morning.
