APPLIES TO

This article was previously published under Q198046
SYMPTOMS
After you install Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 4, the "Automatically adjust
clock for daylight saving changes" check box is unavailable on the Time
Zone tab in the Date/Time tool in Control Panel if the time zone is set
for Israel.
This check box is available for Israel before you install Service Pack 4.
CAUSE
The country of Israel participates in daylight saving time, but the dates
on which it starts and ends may vary. Because the start and end dates may
vary, automatic adjustment is unavailable.
RESOLUTION
To work around this behavior, use any of the following methods:
- Change the time manually on the affected computer(s) by double-clicking
Date/Time in Control Panel and then adjusting the hour value on the
Date & Time tab.
- Use the Tzedit program from the Windows NT 4.0 Resource Kit. You can
use this program to change the affected time zones to start and end
daylight saving time on the appropriate date.
- If it is available, use Microsoft Systems Management Server to make
the modifications on a network.
STATUS
This behavior is by design after installation of Service Pack 4.
