Which ntfs-3g version are you using ?

Currently ntfs-3g does not set sub-second precision.

There is also a slight problem in the fuse interface :
the time buffer is never passed as NULL, consequently
in some circumstances ntfs-3g cannot decide correctly
over permissions. A permissive action is taken in this
situation.

With the latest ntfs-3g, currently as a release candidate,
you can (optionally) use the low level fuse interface
http://pagesperso-orange.fr/b.andre/advanced-ntfs-3g.html
use the "lowntfs-3g" driver instead of "ntfs-3g"

Hope this helps

Regards

Jean-Pierre
