-|  That's because most applications (all MS Office apps) 
-|  create a new file, 
-|  delete the old one and rename the new one. The in reality 
-|  it is a new 
-|  file, therefore new create time.
-|  MS Servers cache the old attributes for some while, and 
-|  reapply them, 
-|  samba does not.

on another box (in this case 3.0.4) this happens not.
on the other (3.0.7) times won't be set correctly...

Mit freundlichem Gruß,
