use the "-p" flag of the "cp" command.
Thanks for this.
I normally use mc (midnight commander) and unfortunately it doesn't
have an option equivalent to -p so I now have to adapt myself to using
a command line for copying <sigh...messy, with lots of typing.......>.
(Anyone know of a 'fox' for mc to put in this cp's -p option?)
There is the 'noatime' parameter which can be added to the HD
entries in
fstab but will this solve my problem (if I add this 'noatime' parameter
on all the computers)?
noatime will make your filesystem NOT to update the **access** time of
your files.
Ah, OK- it only works on the Accessed Date and not on the
Modified(/Created) Date.
Thanks again.
Cheers.
I think krusader has a what your looking for
Thank you for this. I had a quick look at krusader and I think it has
the potential to replace my favourite midnight commander, and it is
certainly better than konqueror as far as I am concerned.
Cheers.
