Please run either one of these commands to see if your system actually record timestamp in detail: <pre> ls -l --full-time /proc/net/ </pre> <pre> find / -exec ls -l --time-style='+%N' {} \; | awk '{if ($6 != '000000000'){print $0}}' </pre> Maybe the timestamp is exactly at 0 nano-second.

Please run either one of these commands to see if your system actually record timestamp in detail:

ls -l --full-time /proc/net/

find / -exec ls -l --time-style='+%N' {} \; | awk '{if ($6 != '000000000'){print $0}}'

I'm having a problem with the full-time on one of my systems, for some reason it seems that system is not recording time stamps out the the ms rage (see example below) does anyone have any ideas how to resolve this? Behaving as expected: <pre> -bash-3.00$ ls -1t --full-time -rw-r--r-- 1 user group 226233 2010-12-21 23:15:36.000149000 +0000 filename1 -rw-r--r-- 1 user group 226800 2010-12-21 23:15:36.000119000 +0000 filename2 </pre> Not behaving as expected: <pre> -bash-3.00$ ls -1t --full-time -rw-r--r-- 1 user group 226800 2010-12-21 18:36:56.000000000 +0000 filename1 -rw-r--r-- 1 user group 226800 2010-12-21 18:36:56.000000000 +0000 filename2 </pre> Thank you for this guide.
