Re: [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.

Re: [Samba] Re: Logon Hours problems (Slackware)
Thanks for your reply. Wow ! That is weird. I've changed it to be UTC-based. hopefully it helps. If I'm still battling I'll try setting my time zone to Athens and see what happens ?
