I'm seeing timestamps off one hour in Windows 200 and XP clients that
were modified earlier this year before the +1 hour daylight savings
time. They show correctly when views from the Ubuntu Linux Server
running Samba 3.2.3-1ubuntu3.8. As a test, I created three files in
Linux at 00:13, 01:13, and 03:13. I could not create a file during 2 am
as that time does not exist in the local timezone. When I viewed though
files on Windows, they showed up as 01:13, 02:13, and 03:13,
respectively. Does the CIFS protocol export times using the local
timezone or UTC? Does Windows not support applying DST properly to file
timestamps or is it a Samba problem?
