my Fah's clients are younger then me

Post by Anglik666 »

I have 2 PC with 5 clients installed. Two of them are linux SMP clients into VM machines and three are GPU2 clients.
An issue is that all of them shows me in a log time a one hour decreased.
Is a client showing UTC time ?
But I live in Dublin, so it is UTC :)
Is it a Summer time difference ?
Anybody could clear it ?

It's UTC/GMT ... without daylight savings.

In France, where the official time is GMT+1/UTC+1, the clock showed in the client is two hours late in summer, and one hour late in winter.

GMT/UTC never adjusts for summer time - - - even if you happen to live at the Royal Observatory in Greenwich. ;)

Nope, Dublin is Irish Standard Time (IST) which follows GMT but applies a daylight-savings time offset of 1 hour during the summer.
