Or maybe you are using Windows XP with a FAT32 disk so you are seeing modulo 2**32 results for the 5 gibibyte file? See: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314463 And pay attention to this statement: You cannot create a file larger than (2^32)-1 bytes (this is one byte less than 4 GB) on a FAT32 partition. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
