Is really the timeOffset send correctly from the vompserver?

[sirwio]

Hi,

I noticed that the time on my vompclient was 2 hours wrong. 2 ours off where I live usually means that the timezone information is wrong. When I debuged this I found out that the read offset at the vompclient was always zero. I suspect that the timeOffset send is send in the wrong way. If I change vompserver code according to the diff below the time is set correct on the client. I'm not experienced at using the htonl functions so I may be wrong. The type of the tm_gmtoff member should however be long!
