OAFW does not have support for files greater than 2GB. This is because the SMB/CIFS protocol OAFW uses to talk to Windows does not support files larger than 2GB. There is a version of the protocol that does but because we can implement it, we need to implement support for Unicode.
This is documented in the "afs-issues.txt" file published with each release and the status reports I publish on a semi-regular basis. The most recent status report is available at /afs/athena.mit.edu/user/j/a/jaltman/Public/OpenAFS/Reports/Apr-2005-Status-Report.pdf \\afs\athena.mit.edu\user\j\a\jaltman\Public\OpenAFS\Reports\Apr-2005-Status-Report.pdf http://web.mit.edu/jaltman/Public/OpenAFS/Reports/Apr-2005-Status-Report.pdf Jeffrey Altman Lars Schimmer wrote: > Hi! > > I've got some 1.3.79 fileservers with some big volumes on it. > In one volume I've got some files from 1 gig to 10 gig size without any > problem > (working with linux). > Now I wanted to save a DVD iso image in that folder with windows XP SP2 and > OpenAFS client 1.3.83. > First nero just saved 2 GB, very disappointing. > Second try nero saved a 356 MB file (the part that was over 4 gig), not very > well, to. > After building the image to a local drive and copy that 4.5 GB file into the > afs > directory, the file on AFS had a size of 4 GB, not more.
