Some things you might consider trying:
1. Sounds like an awful lot of data. Might consider compression with
tar -cvzf [filename] [directory]. Omit the file extension if you do this.
tar -cvf /mnt/windows/user2003.tar \ --directory /mnt/temp/2003
--exclude=User.dat --exclude=History
I notice that you're not using compression. I seem to recall having seen
a thread on the local LUG list about tar silently croaking in exactly
this fashion when the output file reaches 2GB in size; I'll have a look
at the archives and see if I can track down more detailed info for you,
as there
