in reply to $ftp->mdtm question

Beware the timezone differences. It seems that there is not a standard way to learn the timezone in which the FTP server is running. IIRC, MDTM should return the timestamp in UTC, but I've found this to be unreliable.

In a utility I wrote (here and here), I simply add an offset to the time to make an accurate comparison.

Best regards
