Time / Date stamp completely wrong

I have a NT server that runs in its own domain that has a problem registering the correct date /time.
If you map a drive to the server and create a new file the time stamp is always 8 hours ahead. However when you create a new file directly on the server, the stamp reflects the correct date/time.
All time and regional settings on the server / workstations are correct. The server doesnt sync with any other server for the time either.

Almost looks like you're picking up Zulu (GMT) time if you're in the American continent. If so, perhaps there's something in the configuration of the app that you're creating the file with that is causing it to create files using Zulu time. Just a guess.

Thats what I originally thought but I have been through every thing like that.
The trouble is that when creating new files / documents / whatever the date record is fine, only when you look from any workstation you see a different time and usually a different date????
