Since I've been curious about this anyway, I might go ahead and check: Do you (And J. Terpstra, and others) test sending really huge files, such as 700 MB ISO CD-ROM images or bigger, across the net, and then run a cmp on them, going in each direction. That is: 1. Start with a reference huge file on Windows, known to match an existing file on Unix, then copy it over through Samba and do a cmp on them? About how many times is this done in your tests? More than a few hundred? 2. Also run the test the other way, and compare the copies on the Windows side? > I'm not trying to chime in here, but if there was > the kind of bug someone would notice within the first few hours of use, we'd > have hit it hundreds of times already, just in our testing this week.

In any case, it was all more than a year ago, and isn't an issue to me at all.
