MrBr,
NTP works purely in UTC. What time is displayed by Windows (and other
operating systems) is determined by the OS, using the Control Panel Date &
Time or Regional Settings applet. Internally, Windows also works in UTC.
I have Windows systems here using NTP which have both zero offset (UTC)
and local time (GMT/BST) without any problems. What problems are you
seeing? There should be no need to change the time-zone setting - as you
say that should be constant. Is there a particular application causing
the problems? If so, I suggest investigating the settings for that
application.
I don't know the "NTP Public Services Project ntp server".
There are Windows versions of the standard NTP software already available
here:
