[olug] copying from UNIX or Linux to DOS and retaining original time stamp

[Mr Matt Payne]

Try using putty on the dos side.... 
http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/

The pscp manual
(http://www.tartarus.org/~simon/puttydoc/Chapter4.html#4.2)
says the -p flag is implemented.   This will preserve
file time stamps.

pscp -r -p  payne at ojug.org:junk junkDOS

copy all the stuff (-r recursively) from the directory
~payne/junk on ojug.org into the local directory
junkDOS.  The junkDOS directory will be created.  
The -p flag will preserve time stamps.

I haven't tried it.  Now Windows/DOS computer handy at
the moment but I think it will work.....
