dear list,

following problem with large files:

server:
samba 3.0.21b
debian linux kernel 2.4.32
filesystem ext3

client:
windows xp sp2


- i layed a tarball to the directory with a size of 35GB (also tested 
with a smaller filesize of 7.2 GB)
- the filesystem shows the correct filesize.
- looking via samba share, there's a filesize of 2.91GB???
- trying to copy a file bigger then 2.91 GB i get an error "filesize 
exeeded"

================================smb.conf (relevant part):

[global]

<snip />

    large readwrite = yes

<snip />

[datenfriedhof]
   veto files = /lost+found/
   comment = Festplatten f. Datensicherung
   writable = yes
   create mode = 0660
   force create mode = 0660
   directory mode = 2770
   force directory mode = 2770
   path = /datenfriedhof

==========================================================

any help appreciated
regards,
kurt
