Having problems with large files using smbclient
I am using Samba 2.0.6 and FreeBSD 3.3-RELEASE #0 and I am having trouble backing up a file that is 6.82G's Here is what I seen when I run smbclient:> smbclient //DUBLIN/PLATBACKadded interface ip=209.208.0.57 bcast=209.208.0.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 Password: Domain=[WORKGROUP] OS=[Windows NT 4.0] Server=[NT LAN Manager 4.0] smb: \> ls .
