Moreover doing so you can produce only mess because FTP protocol can't tell timezone in anycase, i.e. GMT is best assumption otherwise all dates and times printed out are not more then junk, they not means anything _real_ because outside connections can't assume anything excepting GMT. If you can't pass parameter outside (time zone offset) just don't use it, otherwise you have hand full of fake dates. When FTP protocol will implement zoneinfo setup, forcing GMT will be removed. -- Andrey A.
