Hello,
I'm using FreeNas 8.04 with one ZFS mount split into many datasets.
In Windows 7, I mount a ZFS share as a drive using DirectNetDrive. This allows me to access the ZFS dataset as if it were a local drive in Windows. I do this so I can exploit the easy file copy (drag & drop) functionality on the fly.
When I copy files as per above, the copied file on the ZFS DS has its time metadata (created, modified, last accessed) changed to server date.
I can use filezilla to copy files and 'preserve the timestamp'.
I can use SyncToy to syncronise my Win drive to my ZFS DS and preserve the time metadata.
I haven't been able to find a program that will function like native Window file copy and preserve the timestamp.
TerraCopy is supposed to but through all of my tests, I haven't been able to get it to work properly.
Does any one know of a file copy application, that works like TerraCopy, that will preserve the timestamp?
I've lost hair trying to find one.
Thank you for your thoughts & time.
