Yes, it is the same Filesystem. It is on Solaris8 and the largefilesupport is 
explicit enabled.

As I noted, the version 2.2.5 was doing everythink well. But the version 2.2.6 
has this problem and it is still in 2.2.7.

Well, thats the last what is done bevore the fail. I added some debuging 
informations because first I thougt, samba use not the lseek64 but the lseek 
call.
