[Bug 314860] Re: New timestamp when copying to NTFS partition

2010-08-16 Thread Jean-Pierre
Please note that on Linux, only the owner of a file and root are allowed to set the timestamps of a file to a value different from the current time. So there are three options : 1) disabling permissions checks (no uid, gid, dmask, fmask and umask options) 2) make the user appear as the owner

Also after a clean installation of ubuntu 10.4 I have the same problem. However, when I remove the uid and gid tag of the fstab line it seems the problem is solved. And it seems that USB NTFS harddisks work fine. -- New timestamp when copying to NTFS partition

This bug only occurs with NTFS partitions, so I change the package accordingly. The Ubuntu installers need to be fixed too, because the fstab options are not complete (only gid is set). But if I understand the issue correctly, a new version of ntfs-3g, 2009.11.14, would help tremendously in

I have a multiboot system with three operating systems: A) Windows XP SP3 B) Windows 7 C) Ubuntu 9.10 On every OS I have created a user. These three users have to be mapped to one *identity* (me), so that the security features work flawlessly. If, for example, I restrict read access to one

Maybe this is too much to ask for at the moment. Even the Windows systems do not allow to connect the users of different Windows installations to one identity. A SID change would be necessary to have exactly the same SID on all Windows systems, but this can have security implications in an Active

This is not a Nautilus bug, since it also applies to the cp -a command, with an error message: cp: preserving times for `/mnt/Windisk/Me/Bug311567Demo.gnumeric': Operation not permitted. See http://tuxera.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2t=2405 for details, especially my reply of Sat Dec 05, 2009

I can add something to this. This is happening in Jaunty as of today. If you rely on the fstab entry as set up by the Jaunty installer for an internal partition (device mountpoint ntfsdefaults,nls=utf8,umask=007,gid=460 1), you get: Nautilus file copy ext3 partition - NTFS partition

I re-linked this bug with Nautilus because this problem (also) shows up in Nautilus. When Nautilus uses another package to copy files, then maybe the problem is caused by that other package, but as I'm just a simple Ubuntu desktop user who is trying very hard to stop using XP, I have no idea what

If it's happening in GNOME commander it means that it's happening in something below both file managers (which traverses from GLib down to the kernel). Where the bug exists below is a good question, but it's not one we can answer without a lot more information about how this change occurs. Your
