libsmbclient has smbc_utimes which calls cli_setpathinfo_basic() to set 
create_time, access_time, write_time and change_time. It falls back to 
cli_setatrE() and cli_setatr().

Look into SMBC_setatr() in source3/libsmb/libsmb_file.c

If there is no such function in smblclient yet you should call it utimes.

Hope that helps,



	Andreas
