Environment

Novell iFolder 2.1
Novell iFolder 2.0
Novell iFolder 3.x

Situation

Starting in 2007, Daylight Saving Time will be extended by 4 weeks in most U.S. and Canadian time zones. Daylight Saving Time will begin the second Sunday in March (3 weeks earlier) and will end the first Sunday in November (1 week later). This change complies with a provision of the Energy Preservation Act of 2005 and affects all U.S. time zones that observe Daylight Saving Time (DST). Many Canadian provinces that share or border these time zones have also announced plans to adopt this change.

Resolution

iFolder 2.x and 3.x relies on the underlying OS for time. As long as the server side and client side time is correct, iFolder will not be affected.
