- | //Dayling saving time// option is located on Environment tab of Login dialog. Some servers (mostly on Windows) adjust file timestamp with start of DST and some not (Unix). The option selects between the two approaches. For backward compatibility, Windows-style approach (server does adjustment) is selected by default, while the Unix-style is probably the correct one. Note that the option must be set correctly before transferring the files. It does not make sense to try to use it to adjust the timestamp of already transfered file. | + | //Daylight saving time// option is located on Environment tab of Login dialog.

- | If you use SCP protocol, there is the second option for you to try, //Server timezome offset// on SCP tab of Login dialog. It defines difference between the server time zone and the local time zone. For example if the timestamps of remote files are two hours ahead of local files, set the option to -2 hours. | + | If you use SCP protocol, there is the second option for you to try, //Server timezone offset// on SCP tab of Login dialog.
