Hi Warren and WAMUG Folks.
Your test is probably a little simple. Giving the computer only 10
seconds worth of time in Daylight Savings may not be enough to
trigger the event.
(DLS ends at 3.00am, 25/03/2007, and the clock should go back to 2.00am)
I set a workstation to 12.30am, 25/03/2007, and got it to announce
(Date/Time Pref pane) the time every hour... At "2.00am" it announced
2am. An hour later ("3.00am"), it announced 2am again, and the clock
was back at 2am. So, the DLS change worked.
An hour later, the time was announced as 3.00am for the first time...
I.e. Working as expected also.
So, try your test again. This time though, give your Mac just a
little longer to do the change-over.
Cheers,
Derek

Hi all
Has anyone done some proper testing of the new patch released last
week?
After applying the patch, and clicking on Perth instead of Tokyo I
get the right time with the NTP server on (the time zone still shows
WST not WDT ???).
Anyway, to check the end of the DS, I disabled NTP and set my clock
to 25 Mar 2007 02:59:50 and was hoping that in 10 secs the time would
be 02:00:00. Instead it just rolls over to 03:00:00.
I would have expected the DS zone changes to be independent of the
NTP activation.
Comments?
