What I thought to do was to break the .iso into a multi-part .zip

The problem is that fat32 can't handle files that are larger than
4gb-1byte. So, will still be unable to unzip or unrar that iso image.
I believe you're mistaken in the direct cause of my problem. I'm
using NTFS on the Windows XP machine.
The file is the same size in bytes (8056211212) on the destination XP
machine as it is on the Samba host, but the md5sums (using Sumemr
Properties under XP) don't match.
The reason I mentioned 4gb is kinda off-topic here, but I've had
problems in the past running BitTorrent on Linux box, saving files to
a directory which was samba mounted from another Linux box. I assumed
that there was some kind of 4gb limitation of SMB - and a friend
remarked the same problems (using a Mac) - but googling does not seem
to support this.
Thanks to the other posters for their excellent suggestions - I'll
try them later today & report back.
