I posted at some of the Joomla and various BB boards and received no definite answer to the question.

At SMF, the answer was the board gets its time from the server. If the server is correct, the board will be correct. That doesn't make sense at all.

actually, I think that is the correct answer - after doing a little research (at least in the PHP world), it looks like all the PHP time information comes directly from the OS, so the server is in charge of that information. If the server is correct in how it determines DST information, then any PHP app using PHP built in functions to get to that information should be correct as well.
