SFPT - Vsftpd on Ubuntu: Disallow client timestamp on uploaded files.
by Cichowczyc from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4ZJQJ)
Hi,
I'm running vsftpd on a Ubuntu server. I'd need vsftpd to disallow the timestamp on files it receives from clients. Right now the behaviour is that the uploaded files get the timestamp from the files itself using WINSCP with Preserve Timestamp option enabled. I'd like to make config on server side witch disalowed clients such as WINSCP to preserve timestamps.
I done some research and try different options with mdtm_write=NO in conf file but nothing works.
vsftpd: version 3.0.3
Thanks !
