Bug Description
Ubuntu 7.10
I'am a hard disk with NTFS partition.
I use Nautilus to copy files or directory, and the problem appear.
If I copy a file to the NTFS partition, the date and the time of the copyed file is changed to the time of the end of copy.
The same problem in a USB hard disk NTFS.
This not appear if I copy a file in my home ubuntu (ext3) or in my key USB (fat32).
If I move the file in the NTFS partition, the date/time is not changed.
This is bug is very annoyng:
I'am some OpenOffice files created in Windows, and I want save in my external hard disk. I MUST know when my file is created.
Please correct.
Regards,
Carmelo Viavattene

When you /bin/cp a file then it gets new timestamps by default whatever is the file system. Nautilus maybe redefines this behaviour but not consistently.
