Saw this on lwn - 

Do not use the stock Red Hat 6.0 kernels with smbfs 
if you are mounting shares from Windows NT,98, or 2000 
servers. A message from Michael Warfield explains why: 
the stock kernel has been built with a compile option 
that causes smbfs to only work with Windows 95 servers. 
All others will see corruption in the file timestamps. 
If you are running Red Hat 6.0 on a network with Windows 
servers,you will probably need to build and install 
your own kernel.
