AFAIR, the FTP-RFC does not define any command or standard by which you could determine if the contents of a server have changed. But this function would be quite easy to implement: You request the directory you want to watch. The contents are then saved in a file for future reference. The next time you request that directory, you simply compare the two to check for changes. Greetings from Germany Sebastian
