Greetings,

We have a 2008 R2 Citrix server that shows -6 GMT (correct) when we RDP into the server on the same administrator account. We have been having problems with the server rebooting at the wrong time. When the datacenter techs login into the same administrator account, for them it shows that the timezone is set to -5 GMT (incorrect).

Same user account, same server, different timezones. Could someone explain this? :D
 
Is this a VDI deployment? if so a VDI container could have a different time zone i believe

Is it getting the timezone from the client?:

Guessing this is the case. You could go in and not allow timezone from the client, but that causes other issues since you probably want timezone from the client. At least in our infrastructure we do. But, we also dont have to worry about administrator level folks logging in from different locations. If its not required, simple as turning that feature off in the gpo.
 
So, not the right answer, but the simple solution. Why not set it to reboot + 1 hour...

You want the server to reset at 6, it thinks it's 5, set it to 7... Reboots at 6.
 
I'm guessing that it's probably timezone redirection (as said above). Also, does the timezone reset back to -6 once the -5 clients log out? If so, that might be a solution if you can't disable timezone redirection. Just make sure the admin clients log out instead of disconnecting the session.
