With a time.sleep(1.0) between new files, Linux detects the change in the dir's mtime immediately. Cool. On NT, I get an average 2.0 sec delay. But sometimes it doesn't detect a delay in 100 secs (and my script quits). Then I added a stat of some file in the directory before the stat of the directory, (not the file I added). Now it acts just like Linux - no delay (on both FAT and NTFS partitions). OK... > I think. Maybe. Until you get into network drives and clock > skew... No success whatsoever in either direction across Samba. In fact the mtime of my Linux home directory as seen from NT is Jan 1, 1980. - Gordon
