in reply to How do I preserve file times when using Net::FTP?

I had similar problem and addressed it via a script: savetime / loadtime. It will be helpful for you if you download from one of your own machines.

For your need, you will run it once on the FTP server to save the times and you run it localy to restore the times after the transfer.
