This time, the server timestamp should match current local time. Set the server timezone offset in the advanced tab of the site manager dialog, reconnect, and perform the above test again.
If the server timestamp is earlier than the current local time, the offset should be positive. If the server timestamp is later than current local time, the offset should be negative. The correct value will be the signed difference between the current local time and the timestamp of the server copy of the test file. If it doesn't match (it will typically differ by whole hours), you'll need to adjust the server timezone offset.
You can enter hours and minutes (plus or minus)īy default the server timezone offset is set to zero for new sites.At the bottom you will see, "Adjust server timezone offset".In Site Manager, click the "Advanced" tab.Put another way, client local time is the server time plus the server timezone offset. The server timezone offset is the difference between client local time and server time. Your server time may be different from your local time, due to being in a different time zone (or a server that doesn't use daylight saving time).
