I have been told that when examing a floppy dik the metadata showed no inconsistencies and that the dates are taken from the system clock and GMT. Is it therefore possible to manipulate the dates so they are both consistant with each other and what would have been tested on a disk to show GMT.

The following question was recently submitted via e-mail by a user: Using ESXi 3.5.
