Using the Perl ftp object, how can I retrieve the CREATE date of remote files?

The ftp mdtm method returns the MODIFICATION date of remote files, which appears to be the date the file was created BEFORE being dropped on the server. There is another 'CREATE'date which appears to be the date the file was placed on the server.

How can I get this 'CREATE' date?

The remote server involved here is an NT server. The perl process is running on a hp unix platform.
