Ibay questions
« on: December 20, 2002, 02:32:01 AM »
Users can access the open Ibay I created without any problem but there is one major problem. If I create other folders within the Ibay, the folder names appear but when accessing the folder it is seen as empty even though there are files known to be there. Can anyone shed some light on what is happening and how t go about fixing this?

File Properties (time offset) within FTP
« Reply #1 on: December 20, 2002, 04:41:26 AM »
I'm using SME 5.5 strictly as a web / FTP server, on the DMZ of an IPCop firewall.
My SME's clock synchronizes regularly via NTP with a stratum 2 time server in the same time zone.  The time zone is set correctly (Canada / Saskatchewan) on both my SME box and my workstation, and all appears normal at first glance.

After I edit a file and upload the file via FTP to my SME web server, the file properties are quite different than expected.  I can upload a file at 4:36PM and the file properties via FTP indicate that the file was modified at 10:36PM (exactly 6 hours later).  I have verified this with multiple FTP clients.  This happens within the primary website (/primary/html) although I have not checked if other I-bays are also affected.

I think the file time properties seem to be messing with my caching proxy server also, as any HTML changes do not seem to take immediate effect!
