How do I access the create date from Windows after the file has been FTP'd to UNIX ?
I run an application that creates a hostname_log.txt file on the c:\ of each windows workstation.

At the end of each day, these log files are FTP'd to a directory on a UNIX box.

When I run "ls -lrt", the timestamp that is displayed is the timestamp that the FTP occured, not the timestamp that the file was originally created back on the windows workstation.

Is it possible to access this original "file created timestamp" from the UNIX box ?

Many thanks in advance.
