I am programming a C# application that checks the last time a file was modified on 3 different servers, one of these being linux. Being a different file system what are the possible ways to check when said file was last modified on the system.
I have full access to modifying the server to an extent but I am looking for a number of creative solutions to get round this problem.
Thanks in advance
The easiest thing, if your application is going to run on a windows box is to run and configure SAMBA on the linux box and use it to expose the linux folders a network shares using SMB.
This will allow you to access the linux folder the same way you would access any other windows network share.
Other options are to use NFS on the linux box and use an NFS client (see this SO question), or try mono directly on the linux box.
