samba - Oct 2003 - Strange file size reporting

This just started occurring with the latest update from Red Hat, to 2.2.7-5.8.0.

I mount a Win2k server share to access a backed up Exchange mail store. The size
reported by Windows is 2.01gb, the size reported by my Samba server is 2.01tb.

I have other files in this backup repository that report size correctly. I am
guessing this is because of the large size of the file and maybe a limitation of
Samba?

I hope not.

Anyone?????

Found out that this is a common kernel error, not samba...
