ftp - get file and keep original timestamp?
Can you ftp (get) a file from another server and keep the timestamp on the file that is on the other server?
ie.
server1
server2 - Mar 12 12:30 /filename1
On Mar 15 at 13:00
server1 ftp to server2 and get /filename1
I want the file filename1 to have the date (Mar 12 12:30) on the file timestamp when it is on my server1...
is this possible?
