Hi

I have installed your add-on, but it is giving this problem to me "The
difference between the request time and the current time is too
large."

I had that problem too, but it is not specific to the s:/// extension.
You will get that message with any S3 app you use.

To fix it you need to set the timezone on your PC relative to GMT.

The odd thing is that I'm on Central European Time (CET), which is GMT
+2, but I have to set it to GMT-2 in order to work under my Linux
distro. I don't know why yet, it took me an hour to get the settings
right.

Yes, it is really weird how this TZ thing works with Amazon. I had to
set my time minus 4 hrs, so I would suggest you deduct 4. If your real
time is +5 then set it to +1. Just a thought.

Let us know how it goes so we can add this to a FAQ or report it to
Amazon.
