transferring files using ftp but mantaining the dates
Hi guys,
Is there a way I can ftp some files without changing the last-modified dates from them ?
I haven't seen any ftp option to do so.
Or, alternatively, how do I change the last-modified date for a file, if this is possible... ?
Thanks in advance,
Abrahao.

-r releasename Set the releasename if it is different to the one compiled. Currently unused.
-f deffile Set a file for definitions other than the defaults. See DEFINITION FILE for its format.
DEFINITION FILE
The definition file is used to set several other names and directories to search for. You can specify any of the options in the file. They
are stored as:
