It would be easy to throw together a simple perl, or even bash script
to go check the current list of files on the ftp server and diff it
against the one it last had. Give it a shot.

Hi all,
First of all, i apologize for my very much off-topic question. I hope however
there's somebody who can help me on this one.
The new versions of software i use and support are on a ftp server. New
versions are dumped there, but nobody tells me when a new version
arrives. ;-)
There are a lot of ftp clients out there, but i have not yet found a version
that lets me see if there's a new version of a file without downloading it
first.
Has anybody seen such a program?
Greetings,
Cedric
