    Mount CIFS on Azure

    Hello,
    I'm trying to test a share mounted on a Ubuntu Linux VM (Azure Cloud).


    The mounted share works well with this options:


    Code:
    rw,relatime,vers=3.0,cache=strict,username=XXXXXX,uid=0,noforceuid,gid=0,noforcegid,addr=YYYYYYY,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,soft,persistenthandles,nounix,serverino,mapposix,rsize=1048576,wsize=1048576,bsize=1048576,echo_interval=60,actimeo=1

    The problem I have encountered is when I try to use a script to copy files from an external FTP server on this share.


    All the copied files report the local timestamp (at the moment fo FTP script starts) and not the FTP server timestamp.


    If It works with the remote timestamp if I set the local disk as destination.


    Can you help me to understand how to obtain the original timestamp? Maybe some modification on the cifs mount option?

    Thank you.

    How are you copying files to the mounted location? There might be optional flags that can be specified to ensure that the timestamp is preserved.
