Samba time issue

[olegarr]

Hello,

I have a problem with Samba file server on RedHat Linux and hope that somebody will help me.

When a computer, that has access to Samba, creates a file (let's say text
file), modified time on this file weird (like more than one day ago);
after that this remote computer will write something to this file, but
the date is still odd. And only when the file will be save and you will
wait few more seconds the date on the file will be correct.
Is here a way in which I can setup Samba the way when the time on any
file will be correct from beginning?

This issue is very important for me ad I hope that somebody will help me.

Thank you very much.
Best regards,
Oleg

is the time correct on the Windows PC and the RH server?

you may want to do (on the Windows Machine)

Start Menu -> Run... -> net time \\RHLINUXBOX /set /yes

where RHLINUXBOX is the hostname of your RedHat Linux Server to set the time on the windows box to be the same as the RH box.
