Ext3 users - Oct 2001 - Max. filename length on Ext2/Ext3

Hi!

Does anybody know the limit for filename length on Ext2 filesystem? I
suspect, there's no difference under Ext3. Am I right?

What about pathname length?

Best regards,
Bostjan

255 chars is the limit for both ext2 and ext3.

4095 chars: it's a global kernel limit.  Individual filesystems never
see paths, only the separate filenames.
