SYMPTOM

Files/Folders do not show the date and time modified, only the year

RESOLUTION

When a file or folder was last modified in the same year as the server current time, the HOURS:MINUTES display in the directory listing. However, if it was last modified during a previous year, it only displays the YEAR modified.

This is not a bug, it is standard directory listing behavior for Unix systems. For example, if you look at the sites pre-built into CuteFTP Pro®, you will notice that this type of folder/file listing is typical for many FTP servers. Additionally, this listing behavior is standard for Redhat Linux, Macintosh operating system support, Microsoft, and Palm.
