Tony,
I have just come across a couple of things with timezones and shutdown.
Firstly, the shutdown warning time seems not to be having any effect. I tried setting a shutdown for later today with a 30min warning, and the shutdown message is displayed all the time regardless of time.
[Playing with this further I think I have just realised my mistake. The shutdown warning is an actual time - for some reason I thought it was a duration!]
Secondly, the timezone of the user setting the shutdown is ignored on input, yet taken into account when the shutdown is displayed. The inconsistency is confusing but workable if you are aware it will happen (means you have to enter the times according to the server timezone at the moment).
