Re: [Haifux] NFS shows different time stamps on different PC
Yes, there was a time drift. But I would expect that timestamps would be wrong, but consistent among all mounts.

That is, of course it is doing something, and its consistency model is not strict, but it should eventually get to provide a consistent view for all mounted nodes. I'm not sure that your answer is correct, taking into account that the files I'm talking about were created a day ago - everything was supposed to look the same here's a wild guess - could it be that your computer's clock driffted by 3 hours 20 minutes, and then was re-set using 'rdate -s PC3' ? check your system log files, to see if you have log entries that are out of order - that'll imply the clock was changed backwards (is it a backwards slip, or a forward slip, though?) i wonder if such a scenario could, at all, produce such results. -- Haifa Linux Club Mailing List (http://www.haifux.org) To unsub send an empty message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Yep, both ls and stat output the same, inconsistent date On Wed, 2003-09-17 at 23:43, Slava Shklyar wrote: Whether you receive different results on 'stat -c %Z filename' ?

THanks Mark It is concievable that this is a result of local cache on diffrent computers. NFS is not a good system to use if you want accurate timestamps(amoung other disadvantages) Meir. -- Haifa Linux Club Mailing List (http://www.haifux.org) To unsub send an empty message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
