Dear Mike Mackovitch,
The wrong date problem does not occur with particular software.
The following log shows that the problem can be caused by a familiar
command zip:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
% /usr/bin/zip aaa.zip a
adding: a (stored 0%)
% ls -luT aaa.zip
-rw-r--r-- 1 emc01 student 152 Nov 9 02:25:14 1920 aaa.zip
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This result shows that zip command operation creates an archive having
wrong atime.
We hope this information will help you.
Sincerely,
On Tue, 28 Sep 2010 19:47:57 -0700
