Sorry I misinterpret your question. My bad.

The thing is that common linux filesystem does not save the creation time of files but maybe a samba share can.

I'm not currently running samba on a debian server but I will, as soon as I can get my new SATA drives to work on my debian system :)

Just wanted to clarify my first answer :)

Cheers,

Just be sure to use the same compile flags as Samba or you get errors.
I forgot the -D_LARGFILE flag and got wrong mtime/atime numbers. I
think the file pointers get messed up.

Thank you responding, but please understand that I didn't compile samba. I run debian sarge and I installed from a debian package. Furthermore, we have a snap server which runs a locked down version of linux with samba. Both machines have the following problem:

When I copy files from a windows machines to the samba servers, the 'date created' attribute is always the same value as the 'date modified' attribute. The 'date modified' attribute remains the same, but the 'date created' changes as noted above.

Can anyone on this list verify that their samba server doesn't have the same type of behaviour, especially if you run debian.

Thanks,
Gerald



Cheers,
Henrik

I have transfered files larger than 2GB on both the debian server
and the snap.  In both cases, the md5 sums of the files are equal.
Perhaps the issue doesn't have to do with large file support?

Hi,

I had the same problem when developing with libsmbclient.
The problem was that I didn't compile with -D_LARGEFILE support.

If you've compiled samba by yourself please make sure you use that
flag.

Greetings,

I've setup a samba server (ver 3.0.14a-3) on debian sarge.  When I
copy files to the server, the 'date created' attribute is always
the same value as the 'date modified' attribute.  The 'date
modified' attribute remains the same, but the 'date created'
changes as noted above.

I also have a snap server which has the same type of behavior.  It
is my understanding that snap servers run samba.

Is this a bug with samba or am I missing something?

Thanks.
Gerald Wenzel
