Changing Time for a Virtual Server

Written by Eric Smith, Northstar Computer Systems LLC

A reader who has his ASP site hosted at a virtual server farm asked me whether it’s possible to change the system date/time for just that site. Since ASP uses the NT system time just like everyone else, the basic answer is no. However, you can easily create your own “time” and “date” function that add or subtract time from the current system time. If you are creating a site for the UK and it’s hosted in the US, you can simply add a certain number of hours to the US system time and voila, you’ve got the UK’s time.
