Opening a file says that on a fresh pull, the contents are right so why not do a fresh pull/poll of the file's info. However, that shouldn't affect gcc because it should be doing its own polling, not using win2k's cached data.

Perhaps if I give you more detail, you can see why. I have two computers on my desk. One is Win2k with some code in a=20 shared directory. One is the Red Hat Linux 7.3 with my preferred=20 editor. I smbmount the Win2k shared directory to the Linux box and edit=20 the code there "in the mount point" so to speak. I save the code in the=20 editor. I then run the compiler on the Win2k box via GNU Make. Make=20 uses the date and time stamps to determine which source files need to be=20 compiled because they are newer than the object files. I have made an edit and saved it from the Linux box and then brought the=20 same file up in an editor on the Win2k box and seen the changes. But=20 the date of the file was not changed. I have then unmounted the share=20 from the Linux box which should flush any "left over" file system stuff=20 without having to wait 5 minutes. The date did not change. BTW, the filesystem on the Win2k is FAT32, not NTFS. I have googled around and found a "dos filetimes" setting for the samba=20 server that will allow non-owners of a file to change it's date and time=20 but I don't think that applies here. The SMB server is the Win2k box=20 and I could not find a samba config file for the client smbmount side of=20 things. The answer is there somewhere, I just have not found it yet. It's got=20 to be a setting that I don't know about which is a lot of them since I=20 am not a samba "expert" at all!
