Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe this is the default behavior in modern versions of lftp.
>From the manual: ftp:use-site-utime (boolean) when true, lftp sends 5-argument `SITE UTIME' command to set file modification time on uploaded files. Default is true. ftp:use-site-utime2 (boolean) when true, lftp sends 2-argument `SITE UTIME' command to set file modification time on uploaded files. Default is true. If 5-argument `SITE UTIME' is also enabled, 2-argument command is tried first. - Kyle 2009/11/10 Dr Joel Abadie <jaba...@femto-st.fr>: > Dear Alexander, > > I am actually using lftp.
