Thank you for getting back to me. I've been banging my head against this problem since yesterday and cannot figure out what I'm doing wrong. The only thing I can come up with is that my XML or request must somehow be malformed.

Here is an example of the XML that I am submitting:

PROPPATCH …

…

<d:propertyupdate xmlns:d="DAV:">
 <d:set>
   <d:prop>
     <lastmodified>1293180207</lastmodified>
   </d:prop>
 </d:set>
</d:propertyupdate>

Which returns this response: 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<d:multistatus xmlns:d="DAV:" xmlns:s="http://sabredav.org/ns">
<d:response>
<d:href>/remote.php/webdav/Oak-Tree/Invoices/2011/2010-12-23%20-%20Eric%20Ristow%20-%20Minard%20Posters.pdf</d:href>
<d:propstat>
	<d:prop>
		<lastmodified xmlns=""/>
	</d:prop>
	<d:status>HTTP/1.1 200 OK</d:status>
</d:propstat>
</d:response>
</d:multistatus>

But, as I said in my earlier email, it has no effect. If you submit a PROPFIND for the resource, the getlastmodified value is still the time for which the file was uploaded.

Any thoughts on what I might try next would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Rob
