Hi everybody,
Is there a way to do a stat of files on a ftp server? I have a database which is populated by the contents of these files. I want to setup a crontab to check if there has been an update to these files. If the file has been updated I will download it and then update my database.
I want to know of a way to compare my local files with the files on the server. I don't want to download them and then check since they are quite big.
Thanks in advance,
Dave

Update: wget -N <URL>
seems to do the job.
