Hi All,

In attempting to `dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/windows-share)`, the dd stops at 
2.0GB with an error that states 'File size limit exceeded'.  The share was 
mounted with `mount -t smbfs //SERVER/share /mnt/windows-share`.  The box 
is a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 box running the 2.6.9-11.EL kernel.
