Thanks Kees

It looks like this is a known issue with the WinSCP client.  The issue is with UTC vs DST, and seems to result from an assumption as to whether the remote server adjusts for DST or not.  It results in WinSCP both displaying incorrect timestamps for files on the server, as well as writing wrong timestamps when uploading.

Dear Mon Cab,

> Yes.  That fixed it.  Thankyou Kees.

Glad to help.

> When I edited a jsp and then looked at the jsp file timestamp on the remote machine with WinSCP it showed the timestamp as my the current time (local and remote system times are the same).  However, when I looked up the timestamp of the same edited JSP on the remote box it was stamped an hour ealier than the current time.

I have yet to meet a developer who truly understands working with time zones and who can write code that deals with multiple time zones correctly. I have met loads of developers who think they can, though. ;-)

Also, NTP is your friend.
