[Samba] Re: Logon Hours problems (Slackware)

My setup was also on Slackware 10, and the time zone was correct, but still 
the time was incorrect, and changing strangely on every reboot (it was a 
dual-boot machine). I suppose it is a bug in Slackware 10. Besides, even the 
time zone is the same as yours - GMT+2.  /etc/localtome is a symlink to some 
file in  /usr/share/zoneinfo. The fact is, Athens and Sofia are in the same 
time zone, but when symlink points to Athens, everything is o.k., when the 
symlink points to Sofia time is incorrect.
