Hello Everyone, I think i found something not very right in "smbd/dosmode.c". When I use SetFileTime to adjust mtime and atime for files, and the result always leads to update the mtime and atime to the same value.
After some investigation, I found the issue is cause by smbd/dosmode.c:set_filetime function, the related codes goes below, struct utimbuf times; if (null_mtime(mtime)) return(True); !! times.modtime = times.actime = mtime; if (file_utime(conn, fname, ×)) { DEBUG(4,("set_filetime(%s) failed: %s\n",fname,strerror(errno))); return False; } return(True); the line marked with !! shows that smbd will always set modtime and actime as the same value before calling utime to update file, this is even true with 3.0.23c src. I guess I should not be the 1st person who came into this. I wish somebody could tell me how to make SetFileTime work with samba, or any workround to make atime separately is also welcome.
