Hi, I was doing a backup of a NFS partition (about 300 MB) using zip but I got the error: Zip error: Out of memory (allocating temp filename) I've tried to find some information but I was unable. Since I've used zip to compress SMB partitions over 1 GB I don't believe that it can be a "size" problem. I've tried to specify the temporary directory with the -b flag, but nothing changed. On my disk I've got about 11 GB of free space, so have you any idea or suggestion about this problem?
