Hello,
I have a zfs Raid Z2 (I think) with 4 Sata drives.
I have all drives in one pool split into many datasets.
All shares are set up as ftp over ssh.
I connect to Freenas dataset from Windows 7 via Swish on port 22.
When I copy files from the Windows Swish directory to the freenas mount, all the files' date fields (date created, date modified etc) are 01/01/1970. Of course this stuffs up an automatic backup system as the dates are all wrong and the source files are always copied even though they haven't changed.
Is there a setting in Freenas or Swish or somewhere else that I need to set to ensure each file's date metadata is accuratly copied?
Thank you for your time.
:)
I've done further research and it seems that some FTP clients force preserve timestamp and other don't.
Is there a way to force Freenas to always preserve timestamp?
Thank you for any assistance as this is buggering up my backup process.
