There is a subcommand/setting in (SLES9/10/11) FTP called "preserve", which says whether or not the timestamp on the file when you transfer it gets rewritten or not. It is defaulted such that the timestamp on a 'get' remains the same.
I have been asked if there is a way (other than issuing 'preserve off') to set this via some '.ftp_profile' or configuration file. I know that I could download the FTP source, find the setting in there, change it, and recompile the program, but I would think there'd be an easier way. Can anyone think of how you would do this?
