- Hello, netgurus -
-
- Here's a screwy one (well if the answer isn't obscure I'll be real
- embarassed) involving calendar manager under OW3.
-
- I manage about 20 sparc machines, mostly SS2s. In order for us all
- to conveniently coordinate our schedules, we all run calendar manager
- remotely off my central 4/670, OS 4.1.2 with displays on our local
- screens.
-
- Background: When I first installed OW3, I didn't install
- all the parts to save disk space. Recently, I had to re-compile XRN
- and some other X applications, so I needed a fuller install of OW3,
- which I did. All my files are served off an Auspex, so I installed
- OW3 there in a temp directory and then swapped it for the old
- directory.
-
- Here's the problem: All the times anyone has entered into their
- calendars are offset by seven hours (looks suspiciously like a
- timezone bug, no?), and I can't find any reason this would be.
-
- H E L P!!!
-
- Please respond to me via E-mail "mario@wdc.sps.mot.com" and if there's
- any interest, I'll summarize (and be suprised :-).
