CIFS provides for setting the date when you close a file. The copyTo
method utilizes this feature but apparently only Samba obeys this
timestamp. NT ignores it. Otherwise jCIFS 0.7 and below does not have a
setLastModified() method. That is scheduled for 0.8 which is in the oven
right now.

A program should be written to model the concepts of the task it
performs rather than the physical world or a process because this
maximizes the potential for it to be applied to tasks that are
conceptually similar and, more important, to tasks that have not
yet been conceived.
