Time Synchronisation

I was just guessing really, because a 1 hour time difference sounds
suspiciously like the difference between std time and ds time.  I'm guessing
that if you do a net time at logon and the PC has the daylight saving time
box checked, your PC will adjust one hour ahead of your samba box.  Try
unchecking the box that says "automatically adjust clock for daylight
saving".

When you do your net time, check what the time is in the logon dos box.  You
may need to put a pause statement after net time
