Wrong date using WinSCP

[hareball]

We are using CoZ 1.7.2 on z/OS interfacing with WinSCP SSH client.

The CHANGED date field in WinSCP lists the date for all datasets as 12/31/1899.

I'm not sure if the programming is not understanding or getting a value for the date?

Any help would be appreciated?

See this post which describes the issue that you are seeing:

z/OS datasets don't have a last changed date, which is why we don't send back that field. Some clients will display bogus dates if the last changed date is missing.

We are considering setting the last changed date for a dataset to the z/OS Last Referred date, which is not technically correct, but might be more practical.

Your opinion?

Thanks for the response but how do I tell the server to display differently to the client.

I cannot change the commands that WinSCP issues to get a dir listing from CoZ.

Thanks!
