ftp sync criteria

Post by lccseh »

hi .. i set up a task to test keeping a local folder and a folder on an ftp server in sync.

unfortunately, the date of the files on the ftp server are the date/time that the file upload had completed, and because these are large files (eg. 1gb), the time is generally 2 hours later than the file creation date.

is there a way to have the ftp sync only check the filesize? or can you recommend another way?

regards,

les

If the time stamp of the uploaded file is not set to that of the local file, it means that the FTP server does not support this kind of command, such as FTP server of IIS. BestSync can still sync with this kind of server by remember the timestamp of the uploaded file. If you need to copy the timestamp, please use a FTP server that support MFMT, MDTM or UTIME etc command, such as FileZilla FTP Server.
