There are a couple of things that might have gone wrong. If anyone would cares to check this out I would like to know a couple of things.
1. Does cygwin support large files? Note that this requires support in the runtime libraries and include files. It might be that cygwin does not support large files even though Windows does. 2. Did the configure step recognize that cywin supports large files? It might be that the config script for wget didn't recognize that cygwin supported large files and didn't compile with large file support. 3. It might be that the source for wget needs ifdefs for cygwin. I don't know the build process for wget. -----Original Message----- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of James Melin Sent: Wednesday, July 19, 2006 6:47 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: SLES10 GA I'm running XP, so the behavioir - cutting out at 2 GB. I'm using wget under cygwin - version 1.10.2 halted on the DVD image at 2 GB. As for the reason? Unclear. 14.6 GB free on that drive. I'm not aware of our network folk halting data transfers above a certain size but I will look into that.

Win2k and WinXP both have large file support. My problems with wget have been getting HTTP 401 errors, not file size limits.

They all have 1.10.2 installed.
