Advanced

On the Advanced page of the Settings dialog you can configure additional file transfer options. The new settings will affect subsequently started File Transfer windows.

Figure : The advanced file transfer options.

• Preserve Original File Time

  Select the Preserve Original File Time check box if you want that the transferred files retain their original time and date stamp values. If this option is not selected, the transferred files will be stamped with the time of the transfer.

Upload

The following settings affect the upload process:

  If you select the No option, the locally modified file will not be uploaded to the remote host computer.

• Ask

  If you select the Ask option, SSH Secure Shell for Workstations will ask you to decide if you want to upload a locally modified file.
