When we used SFTP to transfer file it will keep file property like "create date", "rwx".
For FTP, is option can do that?
Thanks.

Certain FTP clients may simulate this with tricks (at least on downloads), but the FTP protocol itself doesn't really allow for it. And definitely no (good) way to do it when uploading a file.

tar, ftp, untar. but, seriously, don't use FTP, its a wretched krufty old protocol, with plaintext password authentication, and two different methods of setting up dynamic ports for transfers, both of which cause issues with firewalls and NAT. ugh.

If you control both ends, rsync over ssh is probably the nicest way to transfer files. If you have to use some other protocol you can hide some of the ugliness by using wget or curl.
