Re: DST issue cropping up again

Can you send me an email, so I can send you back a debug version of WinSCP to track the problem? Please include link back to this topic in your email. Also note in this topic that you have sent the email. Thanks.

You will find my address (if you log in) in my forum profile.

No help here? We use WinSCP to synchronize medical information between different doctors and nurses that work for the same clinic. Our clients are screaming at us. No other software apparently comes close to the functionality of WinSCP.

So far, nothing we have tried is working. Can someone please help?

ok, so after having run synchronize timestamps, we will have the same issue of WinSCP synchronizing old data.

DST issue cropping up again

Twice each year in the US when we move in and out of daylight savings time, WinSCP goes crazy and re-synchronizes all files.

This happens across all versions, but the most recent versions will not save the 4.3.5, 5.0.5 will not save the daylight savings time settings in the GUI.

synchronize timestamps isn't really a viable option, because that still takes forever to run. Is there an effective solution to this problem?

It looks like we will have to discontinue use of WinSCP because we can not resolve this issue.
