I've just spent about two hours reading message after message in the Drupal forums about timezone offset problems, and still can't figure out what the problem is.
I have two sites running on the same server, with site time and event time settings set the same way, and one site handles the time correctly, and the other site does not.
At this point, it appears to be luck as much as anything if Drupal displays the correct time.

Like some others, I'm having problems with the event module and the site time zone settings (Drupal 4.6).
All events being posted are showing up one hour earlier, even though the site time is set correctly and configurable time zones is turned off.
Turning configurable time zones on and adjusting the setting for the event module has no effect--events are still one hour early.
I have also created a flexinode called calendar_event so that events can have a description and location, but there does not seem to be any way to turn off access to the basic event in access control. No one on the site has permission to use the 'basicevent' module, but in the create content menu, an 'event' item shows up.
I can take that option out with the menu settings, but I don't understand what module is generating the basic event node as a 'create content' option. I should be able to turn this using access control.
Thanks, Andrew
