I am running RedHat8, samba 2.2.7 The mailing list archives seem to pin the 2gb problem on several unrelated issues (all of which i explored). The machines in question have no problems creating 2+gb files locally and via NFS. Is this an issue with smbfs? smbmount? anyone have a workaround? -- 'As we enjoy great Advantages from the Inventions of others we should be glad of an Opportunity to serve others by any Invention of ours, and this we should do freely and generously.' -Benjamin Franklin ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Ross Dmochowski / Programmer Analyst III \ rossd@me.berkeley.edu UC Berkeley Mechanical Engineering, 2113 Etcheverry Hall, 510-643-0873 PGPID#:0x631A3396

But you don't actually say if you are using those. /Urban
