[OpenIndiana-discuss] [cifs-discuss] Timestamp on files

[Gordon Ross]

OK, in bge0.zip.pcap, frame 73 shows your client setting
the modified time on \temp\iexplore.PNG it just created.

In bge0.rar.pcap, the equivalent operation is frame 87,
and the modified time looks the same.  But then, the
application writes to the same FD, which presumably
updates the modified time.  Application bug?
