[Abhijeet Paturkar]

Hi Richard,
You are absolutely right.. The 2.2.8 lib works absolutely fine we were
using 2.2.5 lib with some our modifiactions to code.
Thanks for the support.

Ummm, what version of Samba and thus libsmbclient are you using?

libsmbclient has no hard-coded values in it in this regard, however, the

underlying libsmb routines that it uses were not fixed to use the
correct 
SMBwrite and SMBread formats to handle large offsets until Samba 2.2.8,
I 
believe, and Samba 3.0alpha 21 or 22, I think.
