Hi Steve,

I'll go back and review the 2.0.32 sources again wrt timestamps. I have
finally found from another source the cause of the mystery ERRDOS 50
errors -- apparently you can't set attributes and mtime in the SMBsetatr
message, so mtime has to be 0.

I'm currently reworking the sources to separate the attribute setting
from the timestamp setting, so I think this will lead to a resolution.

Regards,
Bill
