What method are you using to do this? SET FILE COLLISION UPDATE?

Can you give an example?

Yes, they should.

The current version is 1.1.17; recommend you patch up to it:
http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/k95patch.html
Testing this locally reveals nothing obviously wrong. File foo.bar on
Windows is sent to C-Kermit on UNIX. "dir" and "ls -l" show identical
timestamps on the two ends (of course neither of these reports the
seconds, which can matter). Telling K95 to "set file collision
update" and sending "get foo.bar" to the UNIX C-Kermit server results
in "Refused: date", as it should.
