To verify that this is not just a simple tar or whatever problem tonight from my Linux box I made a "dd" and tried to create a file larger than 4 gb on my Windows box.
And again I've received "File size limit exceeded" At that byte-count: 2.147.483.647 Bytes. BUT: there's nothing in the samba actionlog. I only found a message about mounting the share.
This is the max size of a 32bit signed integer.
I am not sure if it is windows or linux that has the problem, but I think the kernel smbfs is the problem here.
I know that some linux ftpd programs also have this limit. I use vsftpd which does not have this 2Gb Limit.
There might be a patch somewhere to fix the linux kernel smbfs limits.
Cheers James
