Successful push but changes in pushed file are missing

Hi,
I'm having a problem where changes in my local Mercurial workspace are NOT showing up on the remote 
Mercurial workspace despite the local commit and subsequent push to the remote Mercurial workspace 
being successful.

When viewing the local Hg wksp, the changes were successfully committed and pushed.  When viewing 
the remote Hg wksp and looking at the changeset log, Mercurial thinks it has the latest changes and 
believes the update to the store has occurred, but this is not the case.  Despite "hg status" 
returning nothing, the store thinking it is updated and the changeset appearing in the log, the 
changes made to the file in the local Hg wksp have not been propagated to the corresponding file in 
the remote Hg wksp.

We had issues with the datetime stamp of the remote Hg server so I'm not sure how this could have 
messed things up.  After the Mercurial server was synched up with the NTP server, we've been fine.

Does anyone know:

(1)  What caused this?
(2)  Is there a way to fix this aside from cloning a new Hg workspace on the remote server?

Thanks in advance,
Juliana
