I read that I may want to disable reverse dns lookup on the remote server.

I like the connection retry option.
Thank you!

When I try that I get an error: <setVariable label="Set JJ-Day" name="JJ" value="${Substring( LocalFile, 24, 2 )}" version="2.0" /> Variable not found: Substring( LocalFile, 24, 2 ) My main project is Version 1, is that the problem? Then if I switch to V2 I get an error in my ExecuteOnlyIf executeOn...

That is exactly what I want.
Should I run the "Set" commands by adding them as "Execute Native Command" steps?

I have a requirement to rename a file based on previous file name.
Is it possible?

For example
xx2014-10-07TEST.txt
will be renamed
xx07-10-2014tst.txt

I cannot use the current date function because I may have to process older files.
