I previously modified t5304 to make test-chmtime modify the mtime of the file based on the system time rather than the file mtime precisely to avoid this problem. i.e. the argument to test-chmtime is now prefixed with '=' So I don't think it is related to out of sync clock on NFS server and client. There may be a bug in the NFS client though. >> Is this a known problem? Is this a real problem? Known by me, but I haven't mentioned it since I haven't had a moment to diagnose it. >> My uname -a: Linux XXX 2.6.18-92.1.17.el5 #1 SMP Tue Nov 4 13:45:01 >> EST 2008 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux RHEL 5.2? me too. RHEL 4.7 works fine, same NFS server (running 5.2). -brandon -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
