Subject:   timestamp changes when I ftp a file to server
Message-ID:  <20040115193455.M34061@fifthsunfilms.com>

Hello All,
I've set up two FreeBSD servers, (4.6 and 4.8) both have shown this same =

behavior. When I ftp a file from a remote pc to the server, upon =
completion=20
of the upload the timestamp of the file advances to exactly 5 hours from =
the

current time.

I've confirmed that the server has the correct current time and date.  =
It=20
also shows the correct time zone.  So does the remote pc.

I've tried it from different pc's, different ftp clients, different =
versions

of Windows, all with the same result.

If a file on my pc was created at 2:06pm today, and I upload the file at =

3:15pm, the completed file on the server will display a timestamp of =
8:15pm=20
today, even though that time is in the future.

This screws up programs that look at the timestamp to perform=20
synchronization, like Dreamweaver.

Anyone seen this before?=20
