I have read the threads about setting your computer for last nights 
change to DST.

Unfortunately AFAIK, Microsoft did not provide any patch for Windows 98 
computers which so many of use use with DX4Win.

Last night, my main Linux computer, acting as a time server, changed my 
Windows 98 logging computer to the correct time but GMT time is an hour off.

Does anyone know of a simple way in Windows 98 to change the offset to GMT?

I have been looking at a program called TZADJUST which claims to make 
such adjustments but the readme is so poorly written I can't understand 
what to do.  Has anyone tried this program?

My fallback alternative is to make sure to change any qso times between 
now and April and do the same tor the week when DST gets cancelled.
