Does anyone know why the lstat command when used under a AFS filesystem
returns the same access, modification and change time for any given file?
The time isn't the same for all files, but each file has a one and only
access, modification and change time.
The AFS system is IBM's Commercial version 3.5. The platform is Alpha DU40d.
An example of what happens:
<~># stat -t *.pl
prperl.pl:
change time - Fri Apr 6 15:49:59 2001 <986586599>
access time - Fri Apr 6 15:49:59 2001 <986586599>
modify time - Fri Apr 6 15:49:59 2001 <986586599>
script2.pl:
change time - Fri Apr 6 13:02:56 2001 <986576576>
access time - Fri Apr 6 13:02:56 2001 <986576576>
modify time - Fri Apr 6 13:02:56 2001 <986576576>
script3.pl:
change time - Fri Apr 6 12:34:53 2001 <986574893>
access time - Fri Apr 6 12:34:53 2001 <986574893>
modify time - Fri Apr 6 12:34:53 2001 <986574893>
As you can see, change, access and modify time for prperl.pl are identical
(986586599), the same for script2.pl (986576576) and script3pl (986574893).
How can I fix this problem? Is there a special lstat for AFS?
Thanks for your help.
