Except no one budgeted nor planned for it and it likely will actually impact both homes and businesses. It is disturbing to me that we are this close to the implementation of something that was decided a couple of years ago and MSFT is still putting out tools for it. Some coworkers and I were having Haiku wars earlier today (I lost horribly) and then they went into Limericks and I gave up completely.... one of mine was Daylight savings time Microsoft waits way too long Admins get sore ass -- O'Reilly Active Directory Third Edition - http://www.joeware.net/win/ad3e.htm -----Original Message----- From: ActiveDir-owner@mail.activedir.org [mailto:ActiveDir-owner@mail.activedir.org] On Behalf Of Steve Comeau Sent: Friday, February 23, 2007 7:44 PM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Version 2.0 of the Exchange Tool They should call this whole thing Y2k7 and not DST....

Susan, Any ideas what would happen if we push the tzmove /q to all our users after patching the desktops, and before we run the 926666 Exchange patch? I patched all our users today and now people are already complaining :). Was thinking of pushing tzmove /q with SMS asap but our Exchange guy wont be able to patch Exchange until Monday. What do you think? -----Original Message----- From: ActiveDir-owner@mail.activedir.org [mailto:ActiveDir-owner@mail.activedir.org] On Behalf Of Susan Bradley, CPA aka Ebitz - SBS Rocks [MVP] Sent: Friday, February 23, 2007 5:51 PM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: Re: [ActiveDir] Version 2.0 of the Exchange Tool I interpreted that as a new Exchange tool not an Outlook tool but in hindsight and rereading I think you are right... but regardless....

http://blogs.technet.com/hied_west_blog/archive/2007/02/23/dst-update-exchange-calendar-update-tool-revised-february-22-2007.aspx "* Do not install KB926666 patch on Exchange servers prior to rebase. Install the patch after the rebase. Installing before the rebase will cause OWA recurring meetings not to be updated. If you already have KB926666 installed on the Exchange servers, uninstall it and (re)run the Exchange tool." That's actually the way to do it... At this point in time... it's getting to the point where just patch the dang things and deal with the bloodshed afterwards Rebase first then 92666 Rimmerman, Russ wrote: > Susan, > > Any ideas what would happen if we push the tzmove /q to all our users > after patching the desktops, and before we run the 926666 Exchange > patch?

Patch the OS, then rebase, then 666 on Exchange. We got off the phone with PSS an hour ago and the only reason to hold off on 666 is because it "supposedly" won't fix recurring meetings set via OWA. But was also told that this is not always the case, but appears to be the "best" sequence to go. It appears that they have had "several" results with the different scenarios. We were told that if you check the recurring meeting box that it will probably still get the recurring meetings set via OWA. My head is spinning.
