NtfsDisableLastAccessUpdate and smbmounted Win shares
...o
suppress updates of a file's Access Time attribute when
browsing but even read-only accesses with NotePad or
plain copy leave no traces.
However, if you cp or cat (or for that matter tar) a
file on an smbmounted Win share, the Access Time is
updated regardless of the setting of
NtfsDisableLastAccessUpdate. This produces an annoying
warning message for users of MS VC++ Studio that the
file they've been editing had been changed by another
program and prompt them to reload it.
Does anyone know how to work around this problem?
