I have Windows 2000 Pro and have the auto time synchronization activated. However, even after manually changing the system clock to reflect the recent move to DST, it automatically resets back to EST. I've tried changing settings like the "auto adjust clock for DST" option with no success. I've even tried changing the NIST server that the auto update service connects to. Can anyone help me out here?
BTW, the auto sync service is "hidden" in 2000, so HERE is a link on how to set it up.

2000 isn't supported anymore so you must do it manually. There is a tool in that link(scroll down) to do it.
Thanks for the link! It worked perfectly. I knew 2000 was out of mainstream support, but I assumed that since it is in the "extended" phase with critical fixes still being released, that this issue would be taken care of as well.
Glad it worked.
I think its kind of low for MS not to put that in auto updates, but I guess its expensive to do and they don't support it anymore.
