Thanks! The version of ftpcopy included with Shrike is broken though. It complains about a call to "futimes" failing. The current version of ftpcopy (0.6.2) appears to work, though it has decided to use file times that are five hours earlier than the times mirror used (argh!). A little work with touch worked around that. I've Bugzilla'd the Shrike ftpcopy bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=88749 Of course, just for submitting that, it's probably just me having the problem... I'd still like to get mirror working. Or maybe I should just see why ftpcopy is handling dates the way it is. I can speak C but not Perl. (Yeah, go figure.)
