I'm tired of dealing with time zone thing on this server... all my blog entries and calendar don't work out like what I expected... so there's the conversation between me and 100Webspace support team:

[b]Me:[/b] Hi. I've noticed that PHP is using GMT+2 time zone but MySQL is set to use GMT+3 time zone. On top of that, apache log is using GMT+3 time zone. Can the time zones be standardized ?
[b]Support:[/b] Finding a solution of your problem requires a consultation with our administrators. I have forwarded the issue to them and we will send you our answer as soon as we receive their instructions. If you have any additional questions, do not hesitate to ask. Meanwhile just wait for our next response.

[b]Me:[/b] (revived) *geez* ... *checking back the access log*, found that the admin already response to it and standardize all the timezone on 31 October as soon as I made the post, but some how the reply from support team reaches me a week later...but at least they still reply, ain't that a good thing ? ;)
