- I've a question about fstat...
-
- I use fstat to see if a file has been changed or not.
-
- If I change the file, say "file_a" in my own workstation,
- fstat reflects the most updated status right away.
-
- But if I change "file_a" in another workstation (eg. on the
- NFS server), fstat does not get the most updated
- status until 30 seconds later; unless I close and open
- the file again.
-
- Is there any way to solve this problem???
-
- Thanx in advance...
