And it might be helpful to know that many (most? all?) networked fs solutions use the *client* machines current time for setting modification timestamps, *not* the server's current time! This may seem sensible in some cases, but appears to be incredibly stupid when you're editing files over the network (via SMB, on a Linux box), while building locally (on a Windoze box), and the two machines have "incompatible ideas of the duration of one second"... :-) //David Olofson --- Programmer, Reologica Instruments AB .- M A I A -------------------------------------------------. | Multimedia Application Integration Architecture | | A Free/Open Source Plugin API for Professional Multimedia | `----------------------------> http://www.linuxdj.com/maia -' .- David Olofson -------------------------------------------. | Audio Hacker - Open Source Advocate - Singer - Songwriter | `-------------------------------------> http://olofson.net -' -- [rtl] --- To unsubscribe: echo "unsubscribe rtl" | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] OR echo "unsubscribe rtl <Your_email>" | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- For more information on Real-Time Linux see: http://www.rtlinux.org/
