>crazy? I am actually making a change to it and holds the date of the server regardless? The only way is to modify it on my system than copy it over to the server?
Well, whether you like it or not, the created file gets its date/time from the server, and not from your workstation.
Aren't you supposed to have the correct time both on your server and on your workstation?
This trick has often been suggested to get the time from the server: create a file on the server, and check for its date/time. I used it successfully.
Difference in opinions hath cost many millions of lives: for instance, whether flesh be bread, or bread be flesh; whether whistling be a vice or a virtue; whether it be better to kiss a post, or throw it into the fire... (from Gulliver's Travels)
