NFS access via Win2K is changing UNIX date/time stamp to Oct 1940


Occasionally, when one of our users reads a UNIX file through a Windows NFS product called AccessNFS, the date/time stamp on that file changes to October 23 1940 (that's how it looks on the UNIX side with ls -l; it looks like 2076 on Win2K). Seems to be happening on multiple servers - 32-bit and 64-bit.

Any ideas?

That's the side effect of using M$ machines: You never know when you are going to get clobbered.

Toss the AccessNFS crap in the garbage and install CIFS9000 server on your HP box and then the M$ moxes can just mount the disks (which they will see it as NT disks).

I saw something recently dealing with M$ & the 2076 date being a M$ bug. And I've seen it in NT.

Search the M$ support site......Good Luck ;)
