RE: Modified time on IFS files wrong

Maybe it would be helpful to determine whether the system time
(modification time of object) or the timestamp is incorrect.  Assuming
that you are in the US Central Time Zone, 3:00 AM CST should equal 9:00
AM GMT.  The later of the two times, calculated by subtracting (or
adding) zero to GMT, would be the incorrect time.  I have trouble seeing
an object-embedded timestamp being affected by the offset, what is the
origin of the timestamp in the object name?
