I'm having problems with large files access from a Linux system to a Windows 2000 share. The Linux system is Redhat 7.2 with kernel 2.4.7-10zm, smbd is 2.2.1a. I have verified that this release of Linux does support files larger than 2GB. I have created a file 2,752,512,000 bytes in size and can copy, mv, etc., it locally with no problem. If I try to copy it to the windows share it errors out. Now, if I create the same 2,752,512,000 byte file on the Windows system and ls the share from the Linux system I can see the file but it's size is reported as being 18,446,744,072,167,096,320 bytes! How can I get Samba to be able to deal with files larger than 2GB in size? Thanks.
