[Samba] Disable timestamp change on file access?

[Remco Barendse]

I have samba on ext2, the clients are running windows.

Normaly the date in windows show the last date/time a file was written to 
but now it show just the last time when the file was accessed.

I remember reading about this problem/feature somewhere but am not 
completely sure whether it is something that must be disabled in Samba or 
as a mount option for the file system. I assume it's Samba because 
otherwise I would see the date change too when accessing a file from 
console?
