[Samba] files over 2 GB in size?

[Adam Williams]

Hi, sorry about that :)  The machine with the share runs redhat 9, linux 
2.4.20 samba 2.2.7a.  The other machine is redhat fedora core 1, linux 
2.4.22 samba 3.0.0.  No special settings on either machine.  I read that 
I can use -o lfs on smbmount, I'm gonna see if that works.
