- The NZDST update patch for Windows XP is KB933360. It is categorised as an Update Rollup.
- The NZDST update patch for Windows Vista is KB942763. It is categorised as an Update Rollup.
The patches are required because of 2007 changes to NZ Daylight Saving Time which now commences on the last Sunday of September and ends on the first Sunday of April.
These patches will not be automatically approved for installation if the Update Rollups category is not set for auto approval. They will not be available for detection on any client if the Update Rollups category is not set for synchronisation on the WSUS server. This has caught me unawares, finding that the WSUS server was not set to download this category of update, let alone approve it for the clients. As Update Rollups is not a category I had considered making available to clients before, it was not really a surprise in retrospect that all my handful of Vista clients were showing the wrong time since 16th March.
SP1 for Vista is now out. It can be downloaded standalone for individual installation on clients and can also be imported manually into WSUS. It will become automatically synchronisable via WSUS at some later date, according to Microsoft.
Now that we have SP1 available I hope we will soon see Vista on the TELA laptop programme.
