Sebb commented on NET-635:
--------------------------

I'm not sure what the issue is here.
What does NET do? What should it do instead?

Looks to me more like a problem with the FTP server which has allowed a file to 
be created with an invalid timestamp.
Remember it is the server that generates the listing; if it generates an 
invalid timestamp that is not an error in NET.

Also if you are concerned about timestamps, it would be better to use 
FTPClient.mlistFile() or mdtmFile().
However not all servers support MLIST and MDTM.

>             Project: Commons Net
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: FTP
>    Affects Versions: 3.6
>         Environment: linux
>            Reporter: Peter Naber
>            Priority: Minor
>
> There is a problem at the funktion 
> org.apache.commons.net.ftp.parser.FTPTimestampParserImpl.parseTimestamp
> At the ftp Server exists a file with the timestamp "Mar 26 02:29"
> In Germany, the clock will be switched at 2:00 from wintertime to summertime 
> Mar 26 2:00 -> Mar 26 3:00.
> So the time "Mar 26 02:29" is invalid if the commons-net function will run on 
> a german server.
> The workaround is, to set the servertimezone to GMT
