Hello, I'm using cygwin. I'm using SSH service to connect to the cygwin machine and to do some shell activities. When I've tried to zip some files on this machine I get:
$ zip -r "E:/tmp-backup/wslogdb_12102009_042901_log.zip" "G:/Backup/" adding: Backup/ (stored 0%) adding: Backup/master_db_200910112345.BAK (deflated 95%) adding: Backup/model_db_200910112345.BAK (deflated 95%) adding: Backup/msdb_db_200910112345.BAK (deflated 88%) adding: Backup/Northwind_db_200910112345.BAK (deflated 81%) adding: Backup/pubs_db_200910112345.BAK (deflated 90%) adding: Backup/WSlogs_1_db_200910112346.BAK zip error: Entry too big to split, read, or write (file exceeds Zip's 4GB uncompressed size limit) I fear that it is the kernel (cygwin engine) that can't manage file greater than 4GB. Is there any way to workaround this limitation?
