Hi,
 
In our Zope based Website we use an external (non-zope) ftp-server where
users can download program updates, manuals etc. We do this because we
have a much better / cheaper bandwidth on the external server.
>From within zope I have a sort of 'link object' that points to these
files, so that users don't notice the difference. When I list these
objects in a directory (via dtml-in) I would also like to show
automatically the date and the size of the external file. Does anybody
know how this can be accomplished easily from within zope ?
 
Thanks
Hans
