I didn't think that itemBufferSize had much to do with the server receiving 
a file from a browser, but more in relation to the largest file size chunks 
that it handles at the server end - I remember Robert Garcia talking about 
increasing it to 512k (max) when inserting a file into a BLOB capable 
database. I didn't think there was any changes that were required for large 
file sizes on uploads, only that the faster the servers, the more the 
memory, the bigger the connection, the better performance and greater the 
chance of a large files actually making it.

There is a ASP upload / Tango solution on your Goodies site isn't there 
Ben? - if Farzana is having probs that's a possible alternative. Other 
posters have mentioned that Cold Fusion has a simple and reliable tag for 
this process which it is possible to hook into with Tango, and others have 
used java solutions. If you want more info on those, check out the archive 
list or email me directly for what you want.

Personally I have had the occasional trouble when loading files of around 
200k and more, but only sporadically and I have found that this depends 
greatly on the network congestion at the time and proxy settings on the 
network. Others on this list have used it successfully for uploading 20Mb+ 
sized files.

I recently solved a problem with a client of mine who was having trouble 
when using Mac IE. His browser was caching the pages and causing the file 
upload process to fail. I simply told the browser to check each page every 
time and that immediately solved the problem, as it forced it to talk 
directly to the server.
