[Samba] sambaLogonHours and timezones

[David Wilson]

Hi Jerry,

Thanks for your reply.

The time on the server is set to localtime, the timezone set to SAST (GMT+2) 
as are all the XP workstations.
The time on the server and workstations is correct.

Any ideas why my values are out by 2 hours each time ?

Thanks for your help so far.

Kind regards
