[Pkg-samba-maint] Bug#580797: [samba] mtime not preserved when "cp -p" to CIFS share

[Corey Wright]

Package: samba
Version: 2:3.2.5-4lenny9
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

"cp -a ${FILE} ${CIFS_SHARE}/" does not maintain the original file's mtime
when copied (and possibly "moved", but i can't remember) to a samba CIFS
share.

client:
 * ubuntu hardy (amd64)
 * debian lenny (i386)

server:
 * debian lenny (amd64)

i've suffered from this bug ever since lenny was released, but found
nothing a year ago.  a week ago i finally got fed up with it and did some
hard searching finding this upstream bug report.

https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6520

attached is my patch to 2:3.2.5-4lenny9 which i've successfully tested and
used for the last week in three different installations.
