I imagine you're running a later server... maybe you could test it for me? it's simple just do a "stat <dir>" on a directory from its parent and compare it to when you do a "stat *"... on my system and some RH 8.0 systems others have tested the results vary by 1 sec, consistently. > Btw why do you use smb to share beetwen 2 unix machines? > Currently nfs is still better as it respect unix semantics ... yeah, I reverted to NFS since this little fiasco... I wanted samba because I have a mixed env and didn't want two servers running... sigh. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Simo Sorce Sent: Monday, December 23, 2002 12:14 AM To: Erick Calder Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [Samba] weird stat() On Sun, 2002-12-22 at 20:34, Erick Calder wrote: > > so what matter is the kernel you have not samba version > > sorry if I didn't provide all relevant info. > > client host: RH 7.2 (2.4.18-18.7 kernel), samba 2.2.1a-4 > server host: RH 7.0 (2.4.9 kernel), samba 2.0.10-0.7 > > > However, this seem a kernel bug in smbfs > > if this is a bug in the kernel... the question on which side: the client > (which is rather recent) or the server (which is a little older)... and in > either case then I should be posting to which mailing list? well try to upgrade the server to 2.2.7a and see if thins change. I think we fixed some bugs with dos times in 2.2.x series. Btw why do you use smb to share beetwen 2 unix machines? Currently nfs is still better as it respect unix semantics ...
