Subject  :  Error: "Warning: Failed timestamp"
Size(KB) :  1


I'm trying to backup select folders/files from the hard drive my new 
PC to the hard drive on my old PC (networked).

SOURCE PC: Windows XP (NTFS C:)
DESTINATION PC: Windows 98 SE (FAT32 mapped as N:)

The first time I ran the command below...

C:\xxcopy C:\Data N:\PCBackups\Data /s /clone /yy

...I got the error "Warning: Failed timestamp" when each 
folder/subfolder was created on the destination drive. However the 
bottom line said "Exit code = 0 (No error, Successful operation)" and 
all files/folders seemed to have copied okay. Subsequent uses of the 
command didn't have the error, but some of the files (not all) are 
getting copied although they haven't been changed.

I tried creating the files & folders on the destination drive by 
copying within Windows Explorer first, but it made no difference. I 
also experimented by copying the source folder to a FAT32 partition 
on my new PC before issuing the XXCOPY command -- no luck there.

I'm using XXCOPY == Freeware == Ver 2.84.6

I'd been using XXCopy on my old PC for a while now with no problems. 
Maybe XP has something to do with it(?)
Anyone know what could cause this error and this behavior?

Thanks,
