Yes - I have talked with MingMing and Aneesh about those (NFS may
|
||
|
|
someday be able to use those too).=A0 An obstacle in the past had been
|
||
|
|
that samba server stores its own fake creation time in an ndr encoded
|
||
|
|
xattr which complicates things.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
MingMing/Annesh -
|
||
|
|
Xattr or other way to get at birth time?
