Hi! I am trying to copy a large file to a SMB share and I get a "File size limit exceeded" error when 2 gigabytes are reached. I have red hat linux 9 with the latest updates (kernel-2.4.20-31.9) Server is windows XP pro SP2. I read on the net, that the smbfs module had such a limit. Is this still true ? Here is what I do : # mount -t smbfs -o username=me,password=secret //xp1/backup /mnt/1 # cd /mnt/1 # dd if=/dev/hda of=hda_try2.img File size limit exceeded # ls -l -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2147483647 Mar 22 13:36 hda_try2.img Any solution ? (besides not using files larger than 2 GB ) Regards, David Balažic --------------------------------------------------------------------- http://noepatents.org/ Innovation, not litigation ! --- David Balazic mailto:david.balazic@xxxxxxxxx HERMES Softlab http://www.hermes-softlab.com Zagrebska cesta 104 Phone: +386 2 450 8851 SI-2000 Maribor Slovenija --------------------------------------------------------------------- "Be excellent to each other." - Bill S.
