The date shown for the file on Solaris and on Windows is the same, provided your timezone is +09:30, which would put you in Japan or Korea or one of the Pacific islands (not India / Bhangla Desh). The Solaris machine has a timezone of GMT, whereas the Windows machine has some other timezone. Your mail is dated 27 Dec 2002 15:13 -05:30, placing you in Bangalore, Bhopal, Calcutta, etc. I think you need to set the right timezone on the Windows machine (and then set the clock). It is common on UNIX machines to use GMT, but if this is causing confusion, you can locate Sun's instructions for how to set a different timezone. Hope this helps! James F.
