The short answer is that I don't know if I have shell access, bit I suspect not.

The date shown is the date of the upload. Is there any way to have the original dates copied across?It depends on how you do the copy. Can you use rsync? That has the ability to preserve timestamps. I don't think the FTP protocol actually allows changing timestamps. Do you have shell acces to the remote site? If so, FTP up a TAR file and unpack it locally... tar has the option of preserving timestamps and filemodes. Gordon
I will have a look at rsync, but that is so complicated!!! Thanks Neil -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/listfaq
