[OpenAFS-devel] Solaris-8/64-bit problem with mtime = Jan 1 1970

[Ole Benner]

Hi,

I have just discovered a problem on our OpenAFS client on
Solaris-8/64bit. If I make a file on another platform with date "Jan 1
1970" and I try to stat it on Sol-8 I get this error:

On Linux w/ OpenAFS 1.0.4:
--------------------------
olb@bsa:[olb]$ touch -t 197001010000 test 
olb@bsa:[olb]$ ls -l test
-rw-rw-r--    1 olb      olb             0 Jan  1  1970 test

On Solaris-8/64bit with OpenAFS 1.0.4:
--------------------------------------
olb@ara:[olb]$ ls -l test 
test: Value too large for defined data type

On Solaris-8/32bit there is no problem. A time value up to 197001010059
failes on Sol-8/64bit and from 197001010100 and forward it is all right.

Has anyone alse seen that ?
