How to get 4 digit Year using ls -l in HP-Unix
I have this code that loops through a directory and adds all the files it finds in a log file.

Code:
# get list of files from FTP server; stores 
  # 'ls -l' results in $FTP_RESULTS
  (
   echo user ${FTP_USER} ${FTP_PASSWD}
   echo cd ${FULL_PATH}
   echo ls -l
   echo bye
  )|ftp -i -n $FTP_SERVER 2>&1 1> $FTP_RESULTS

this is working fine with a output like
Code:
12-04-09  02:41PM  2343044  WV20090923152200
12-04-09  02:41PM  7101       WV20090924090626

Issue:

My problem is i need four digit year instead of the two digit one.

Can some one help?

check the man page for stat. Default is 4 digit years and the output is flexible.
