Re: ls -lh show file not displaying correct size
Thanks for the answer so now for the next question. How do I sync this file to other FreeBSD servers. I tried using rsync with the --spares but the size on the other server was on it's way to being the 256G size and fill up the other server. How would I go about making an exact duplicate.

Can any one tell me what is up with file size ? The 256G is correct. It's a sparse file (i.e. there are holes in it).
