Hallo zusammen,
ist es möglich nachträglich Datum und Uhrzeit einer Datei auf
dem Server zu verändern?
Tach,
na klar geht das.
Die folgende Manpage stammt zwar von AIX, aber praktisch alle **IX-ähnlichen Betriebssysteme sollten dasselbe können:

touch Command
Purpose
Updates the access and modification times of a file.
Syntax
touch [-a] [-c] [-m] [-f] [-r RefFile] [Time | -t Time] { File ... |
Directory ... }
Description
The touch command updates the access and modification times of each file
specified by the File parameter of each directory specified by the Directory
parameter. If you do not specify a value for the Time variable, the touch
command uses the current time. If you specify a file that does not exist, the
touch command creates the file unless you specify the -c flag.
The return code from the touch command is the number of files for which the
times could not be successfully modified (including files that did not exist and
were not created).
Note: Any dates beyond and including the year 2038 are invalid.
Flags
-a Changes the access time of the file specified by the File variable. Does not
change the modification time unless -m is also specified.
-c Does not create the file if it does not already exist. No diagnostic messages
are written concerning this condition.
-f Attempts to force the touch in spite of read and write permissions on a file.
-m Changes the modification time of File. Does not change the access time unless
-a is also specified.
-r RefFile Uses the corresponding time of the file specified by the RefFile
variable instead of the current time.
Time Specifies the date and time of the new timestamp in the format
MMDDhhmm[YY], where:
MM Specifies the month of the year (01 to 12).
DD Specifies the day of the month (01 to 31).
hh Specifies the hour of the day (00 to 23).
mm Specifies the minute of the hour (00 to 59).
YY Specifies the last two digits of the year. If the YY variable is not
specified, the default value is the current year.
-t Time Uses the specified time instead of the current time. The Time variable
is specified in the decimal form [[CC]YY]MMDDhhmm[.SS] where:
CC Specifies the first two digits of the year.
YY Specifies the last two digits of the year.
MM Specifies the month of the year (01 to 12).
DD Specifies the day of the month (01 to 31).
hh Specifies the hour of the day (00 to 23).
mm Specifies the minute of the hour (00 to 59).
SS Specifies the second of the minute (00 to 59).
Notes:
1. The touch command calls the utime () subroutine to change the
modification and access times of the file touched. This may cause the
touch command to fail when flags are used if you do not actually own
the file, even though you may have write permission to the file.
2. Do not specify the full path name /usr/bin/touch if you receive an
error message when using the touch command.
Exit Status
This command returns the following exit values:
0 The command executed successfully. All requested changes were made.
\>0 An error occurred.
Examples
1. To update the access and modification times of a file, enter:
touch program.c
This sets the last access and modification times of the program.c file to
the current date and time. If the program.c file does not exist, the touch
command creates an empty file with that name.
2. To avoid creating a new file, enter:
touch -c program.c
3. To update only the modification time, enter:
touch -m \*.o
This updates the last modification times (not the access times) of the
files that end with a .o extension in the current directory. The touch
command is often used in this way to alter the results of the make command.
4. To explicitly set the access and modification times, enter:
touch -c -t 02171425 program.c
This sets the access and modification dates to 14:25 (2:25 p.m.) February
17 of the current year.
5. To use the time stamp of another file instead of the current time, enter:
touch -r file1 program.c
This gives the program.c file the same time stamp as the file1 file.
6. To touch a file using a specified time other than the current time, enter:
touch -t 198503030303.55 program.c
This gives the program.c file a time stamp of 3:03:55 a.m. on March 3,
1985.

Man merke: touch kann nicht nur den Timestamp einer Datei auf die aktuelle Zeit setzen (wie meistens angewendet)…
In Perl geht es analog mit der Funktion utime (schau mal unter perldoc -f utime oder im Camelbook).
