Yep. See my request for a --no-tweak-hlinked option to avoid such attribute tweaking issues: https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4561 > And it doesn't handle those pesky multiple link-dests. Presumably you would want to itemize with respect to only one of the link-dest dirs, so the issue is just that files linked into the destination by "cp -al" will be considered definitive when a file from one of the other link-dest dirs would match. I have an enhancement request that would address that, too, but I doubt it will be implemented in its current form: https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5644 -- Matt -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
