I'm using PHP's ftp_rawlist function to get a listing of files and their associated last-modified date/time. For my purposes, I need to know the time zone (or offset) of the the last-modified date/time. The dates/times alone are useless to me as I need to convert them to UTC.

Is there anyway to figure out what the FTP server's time zone setting is?

There is no way defined in the FTP standard to determine remote server's time zone.

If you have write permissions to the FTP server I guess you could upload the file and then calculate the difference between the file time reported by FTP and locally.
