file time stamp is wrong with ssh file transfer

cy163 · 05-16-2008, 08:30 AM

when I transfer a file using SSH file transfer protocal from a local machin running Windows 2000 to a server running Linux RedHat Advanced Server 4.0, I found that the file on the server has a wrong time stamp, 8 hours ahead of correct time. However, the local time (both hardware clock and system clock) are correct.

Please help.

What time-zone are you in?

Tinkster thank you for your hint. However, I have checked the time zone (Asia/ShangHai). iT is correct to me.

OK ... and what tool/program are you using to transfer the
files with? Not that I know much about any of the things
that are available for windows, mind you.

Cheers,

Also, is hardware clock on your RedHat box set to UTC or localtime?
