CRM 3.0 and Daylight Savings for 2008
-

Hi all,
I'm investingating what is needed to ensure a CRM 3.0 implementation is not affected by the upcoming daylight saving changes. I have been searching for information on what is required but there seems to be information overload on this subject which makes things a little confusing (certain MS pages appear contradict others)
From what I can gather the approach would be as follows:
1. Update all server OS - KB942763 (Windows Server 2003 SP1 & SP2)
2. Update all client OS
3. Update Exchange Server - KB926666 & KB931915 (Exchange Server 2003 SP2)
4. Update Outlook clients - KB931667 (Outlook 2003)
5. Update CRM 3.0 - Update Rollup 2
6. Run the Update Time Zone Wizard for CRM KB932984
Does this sound correct? Has anybody else worked their way through the reams of information, or, even better actually applied these already?
Thanks for your help!
Beauy.

Two things:
1. Update general Windows enviornment, in general if the latest updates are apply - should be ok, see this link for more details:

2. Apply the latest update to Microsoft CRM 3.0, see this link for more details:

Also if you run into any problems after you've applied the hotfix, try changing the users' time zones, saving, and then changing it back to the original.
