IIS FTP daylight savings timestamps are off

daylight-savingftpiisiis-7

The IIS FTP server is reporting file timestamps without applying daylight savings time offset, ie. in Windows explorer, a file shows a modification timestamp of 2012-01-01T01:27 and the FTP server shows it as 2012-01-01T02:27.

This is screwing up some file synchronization scripts that use the timestamps to ensure backups are complete and up to date. Is there any way to configure IIS FTP to export the correct timestamps?

IIS W3SVC timestamps are in Universal Coordinated Time, UTC is always the same, DST or not.
