8.1.1 Time Synchronization

Time synchronization can be very important to programmers. Consider the following options:


time service = yes
dos filetimes = yes
fake directory create times = yes
dos filetime resolution = yes
delete readonly = yes

If you set these options, Samba shares will provide the kind of compatible file times that Visual C++, nmake, and other Microsoft programming tools require. Otherwise, PC make programs will tend to think that all the files in a directory need to be recompiled every time. Obviously, this is not the behavior you want.
