SFTP timestamp

Vijaya Kumar_3 — Mon, 06 Jun 2005 05:35:49 GMT

Hi all,

I have an issue with SFTP. When I download files using sftp, my timestamp getting changed. Here is the command line i am using,

sftp myuser@hostname:/opt/psoft/logs/* c:\pmo\

Is there a way using sftp to download the files with the same timestamp of the server?

Thanks in advance! I will assign points!

Vijay

Try by using -P option with sftp as,

sftp -P myuser@hostname:/opt/psoft/logs/* c:\pmo\

hth.

Hi,

You just have to use the -P flag when you put/get files:

>get -P file_to_get

Enjoy :-)

The -p command parameter works with the scp command to presere permissions.

That's the first thing I'd try. I'd also try the scp command instead of scp because its better suited for these kind of non-interactive file transfers.

Hi
-p Preserves modification times, access times, and modes from the original file.

Try this

Thanks

"scp -p" will do the trick
