Thank you Roger. I've actually got the server back up and running. There was another dsmserv process going and once I killed that then I was able to get accept date and commit to work. But I will bear in mind your advice on changing the timezones and thanks for the link to the Win2K version. At least this is the only Win2K server we still have around.

If not, try that. You can download a copy for Win2000 at http://download.microsoft.com/download/5/8/a/58a208b7-7dc7-4bc7-8357-28e29cdac52f/TZEDIT.exe This is a whole lot preferable to editing the registry by hand. Make sure you follow the final two steps in Microsoft's tzedit.exe instructions - which is that you must change your timezone to something OTHER THAN your correct time zone, and then change it back again. If you don't do those last two steps, things will be all confused. See Microsoft's web page about this: http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=914387 You probably should bounce dsmserv after making this change. P.S. These instructions will work for anything back to Win95, except that the Windows 95/98/ME version of tzedit.exe is at ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/services/technet/samples/ps/Win98/Reskit/CONFIG/ Roger Deschner University of Illinois at Chicago [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Tue, 16 Jan 2007, Andrew Ferris wrote: > >The one Windows 2000 server we have is our TSM server (5.3.3.3).
