On my IIS6 server (windows 2k3) the times recorded in my
IIS log files are off by hours.

2004-08-11 01:32:38 is an attempt at 9:28PM. System time
and time zone are correct. Please help!

Hi, If you are using W3 Extended Logging, then all time stamps are in GMT. This is part of the W3 Extended logging specification. You can't change it. This means that your log files avoid problems with repeating time, or missing time, when you change into/out of daylight savings (for example). You can configure IIS to roll-over the logfiles based on local time, but the timestamps inside the files will always be GMT if you use W3 extended logging. Your web log analysis software should be able to cater by applying an offset, if required.
