There's a 137GB barrier in Windows 2k that can cause major data loss, as I learned the hard way. I don't know if it has any impact on Samba, but since the drives are on either side of the barrier it's worth looking into. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/305098/EN-US/ If you haven't enabled this yet, do it. If you don't you will lose data, you will lose data, you will lose data. Even if you haven't lost data yet, you will. It might not make Samba work, but it will make Windows 2000 work. -- Danny P.S.

Re: Able to mount samba but it's empty
Hi list, But I do enable bigLba in Windows' registry already, As I can use full of 200 GB capacity disk. The problem occurred only when it was mounted Windows's disk from FreeBSD with command: mount_smbfs, I found nothing in the mount point.

Able to mount samba but it's empty
Hi all, I'm using 4.8-RELEASE-p15 and Samba-2.2.8a for mounting shared directory on Windows2000 (NTFS). So far the disk on Windows2000 is only 120 GB and mounting is successful.
