[horde] Time-Zone Question

[Thomas O'Brien]

I've tried changing the IIS logging format to use local time rather than
UTC, as well as hard coding the time zone in prefs.php. I've also given
rights to everyone to change the system time. To no avail. The only way I
can get the time in Horde to display the correct time is to adjust the
system time to compensate.

Might this have something to do with the way times are stored in the mysql
database?

I have tried changing to a different timezone with no effect. Horde simply
ignores my preference and starts with a time 1 hour behind my system (local)
time.

Is this the default behaviour of Horde? I would assume it should simply use
the system time, which would be okay by me.  I do not understand your
comment about my server not allowing me to change the time zone. By
"server", do you mean Windows 2000 or my smtp mail server? By the way, I am
running the mail server from the same box.

The timezone "Africa/Lagos" I've selected, is from the down list presented
by Horde, so I can't see why it should not "know" it.

A little clarification would be appreciated. Thanks.
Sani.
