Hi, i'm experiencing some file timestamp problems since the last update of libc6 from 2.3.1-* to 2.3.2-3 when i'm using cfs filesystems or getting files with scp... /var/cfs/data1 is an encrypted filesystem mounted via nfs: shg@host:/var/cfs/data1$ date Fri Aug 22 17:43:08 CEST 2003 shg@host:/var/cfs/data1$ touch testfile shg@host:/var/cfs/data1$ mkdir testdir [cropped ls-output] drwxr-xr-x 2 shg shg 48 Aug 22 17:43 testdir -rw-r--r-- 1 shg shg 0 Jan 1 1970 testfile shg@host:/var/cfs/data1$ stat testfile File: estfile' Size: 0 Blocks: 0 IO Block: 4096 regular empty file Device: bh/11d Inode: 708 Links: 1 Access: (0644/-rw-r--r--) Uid: ( 505/ shg) Gid: ( 505/ shg) Access: 1970-01-01 01:00:01.000000000 +0100 Modify: 1970-01-01 01:00:01.000000000 +0100 Change: 2003-08-22 17:43:15.000000000 +0200 so every file has 1970-01-01 01:00:01 as modification time, which is quite annoying if you need the exact timestamp of files. a similar phenomenon occurs when i transfer files via scp: shg@host:~$ ssh remote1 ls -al testfile -rw-r--r-- 1 shg shg 0 Aug 22 17:49 testfile shg@host:~$ scp -p remote1:testfile . testfile 100% 0 0.0KB/s shg@host:~$ ls -al testfile -rw-r--r-- 1 shg shg 0 Jan 1 1970 testfile the scp transfer to the remote host is ok: shg@host:~$ rm testfile shg@host:~$ touch testfile shg@host:~$ ls -al testfile -rw-r--r-- 1 shg shg 0 Aug 22 17:53 testfile shg@host:~$ scp -p testfile remote1: testfile 100% 0 0.0KB/s shg@host:~$ ssh remote1 ls -al testfile -rw-r--r-- 1 shg shg 0 Aug 22 17:53 testfile any clues about this? which package is responsible for this behaviour? thanks in advance :) best regards Hans-Gert
