I eventually gave up since I had a dozen other things to do. I like the idea and mostly like the implementation, but there's obviously still some issues that need to be worked out. In addition, a linux based install would probably be useful as well.
Did you have the Microsoft DST patch installed on the sundial server? We had a similar issue trying to run it at SVR, and I think thats what we finally did to resolve it. Combined with the fact that we are from the east coast so had half our PC's set to EST instead of PST, it was a little rough getting it started, but we eventually got it up and running.

I think its a very neat system, although it would be neater if it got the match schedules from FIRST's software at all events, from the user end, I have no complaints.
