Try "cat > testfile" or something along these lines that creates a file
without explicitly resetting the timestamp as touch is doing. I think you
should find the same time difference as with Emacs. If so, you want to talk
to the folks that provide your roaming directories what they do about
network time synchronisation and how it's possible that the clocks of two
computers on the network drift that far apart.

Achim.
