Thank you.
There is no difference with or without "fake directory create times=yes".
After changes in the folder, the creation time is changed too (current time)
On http://www.archivum.info/samba-technical@lists.samba.org/2008-10/00157/
Different-parameters-in-Samba-3-and-Samba-4.html I found absent parameter
"fake directory create times" in samba 4
My smb.conf:
# Global parameters
[global]
workgroup = LOCAL
realm = LOCAL.DOMAIN
netbios name = SSRV01
server role = active directory domain controller
server services = s3fs, rpc, nbt, wrepl, ldap, cldap, kdc, drepl, winbind,
ntp_signd, kcc, dnsupdate
idmap_ldb:use rfc2307 = yes
# dos filetimes =yes
# dos filetime resolution = yes
# no effect, so commented:
# fake directory create times = yes
[netlogon]
path = /var/lib/samba/sysvol/local.domain/scripts
read only = No
[sysvol]
path = /var/lib/samba/sysvol
read only = No
[folder]
comment = Software needs fixed creation times
path = /home/share/software
read only = no
force create mode = 777
valid users = a1, a2, a3
