Hi, Darryl,

Ahh, the usage note from that program happens to be missing the -c
option.  You should be able to use '-c ibis.rc'.  One way to know
whether you have set maxBytes to the value you want is to specify '-v
2' on the same command line and then examine the output message for
line with

fileManager initialization complete -- maxBytes=dddd

Hope this helps.

John
