Hello, my problem: In the past "fake directory create times" did what I expect. The creation time of directories were fixed. Then I changed to samba 4 and "fake directory create times" did not work any longer. But I found a workaround and the creation times of directories were fixed. Today there was a virus and I restored a backup and the directory creation time is variable. After changing a file, the directory creation time is new. And I forget what I did in the past to workaround this problem in samba 4. It is configured as a PDC. Please help! The software in the directory is not working with jumping creation times. Best regards KM
Here is the smb.conf:
# Global parameters
[global]
workgroup = LOCAL
realm = LOCAL.DOMAIN
netbios name = SSRV01
server role = active directory domain controller
server services = s3fs, rpc, nbt, wrepl, ldap, cldap, kdc, drepl, winbind,
ntp_signd, kcc, dnsupdate
idmap_ldb:use rfc2307 = yes
# dos filetimes =yes
# dos filetime resolution = yes
# no effect, so commented:
# fake directory create times = yes
[netlogon]

Can you describe more fully what create times you're getting ? "fake directory create times" should always return a create time of 1/1/1980 to clients.

There is no difference with or without "fake directory create times=yes". After changes in the folder, the creation time is changed too (current time) On http://www.archivum.info/samba-technical at lists.samba.org/2008-10/00157/ Different-parameters-in-Samba-3-and-Samba-4.html I found absent parameter "fake directory create times" in samba 4 My smb.conf: # Global parameters [global] workgroup = LOCAL realm = LOCAL.DOMAIN netbios name = SSRV01 server role = active directory domain controller server services = s3fs, rpc, nbt, wrepl, ldap, cldap, kdc, drepl, winbind, ntp_signd, kcc, dnsupdate idmap_ldb:use rfc2307 = yes # dos filetimes =yes # dos filetime resolution = yes # no effect, so commented: # fake directory create times = yes [netlogon] path = /var/lib/samba/sysvol/local.domain/scripts read only = No [sysvol] path = /var/lib/samba/sysvol read only = No [folder] comment = Software needs fixed creation times path = /home/share/software read only = no force create mode = 777 valid users = a1, a2, a3
