A stat of one of the files on the ncp filesystem looks like this:

  File: "pm-net2.ini"
  Size: 14025           Blocks: 28         IO Block: -4611692065741340160 
Regular File
Device: 15h/21d Inode: 1517        Links: 1    
Access: (0444/-r--r--r--)  Uid: (    0/    root)   Gid: (    0/    root)
Access: Wed Jun 11 00:00:00 2003
Modify: Wed Jun  4 12:08:00 2003
Change: Tue Jun  3 11:07:06 2003

This file, according to its timestamp was changed at 12:08 on June 4th.

Does anything look odd, apart from that?

Dave.
