  • try re-again same process and see the results (put new files and see modif time on remote) ?
  • be sure remote files are not be affected by any script or process..(might be used write(),utime(s)()..)
  • what is the output in ftp session?
ftp> status
  • and what is the output on remote?
for i in file[1-3] fileend4; do stat --printf="%9n -> %.19y__[%Y]\n" $i ; done
