File System Connector 12.12

# DirectoryFileAttributeIgnoreFilterUseLStat

A Boolean that specifies whether the connector uses the `lstat` function, rather than `stat`, to retrieve the attributes of files on UNIX platforms.

When the connector encounters symbolic links, the `stat` function returns the attributes of the target file, and the `lstat` function returns the attributes of the link. You can therefore use this parameter to stop the connector from retrieving symbolic links.

Type: | Boolean
Default: | False
Required: | No
Configuration Section: | TaskName or FetchTasks
Example: | `DirectoryFileAttributeIgnoreFilterUseLStat=True`
