Hi,
I had a similar problem (I tried to copy large files from one Win98 station
to another Win98 station on a large network (+100 workstations). Copying
from/to NT worked fine.). I've never had a problem on small networks.
Are you able to copy large files from one workstation to another? And from
Linux to NT?
Regards,
Jan-Pieter van den Heuvel

Thanks for the input; unfortunately, the copy fails from the command
prompt, also. I forgot to mention in my original post that I had tried
what you suggested. Just to be sure, I tried again this morning. Here's
what happened:
D:\tmp>net use y: \\yoyodyne\yoyodyne
The command completed successfully.
D:\tmp>copy 090000000.dat y:\data1\kasper
1 file(s) copied.
D:\tmp>copy 100000000.dat y:\data1\kasper
1 file(s) copied.
D:\tmp>copy 110000000.dat y:\data1\kasper
An unexpected network error occurred.
0 file(s) copied.
D:\tmp>
I'm really mystified by this, as the failure seems to occur only
if the file size is greater than 100 megabytes in the strict sense,
i.e. greater than 100 * (1024*1024) bytes.
