Hi Everyone. So far: thanks to everyone for the support. I was offline for 2 days, but tonight I've spent again some time at home on that problem. My configuration at home is slightly different: I'm using WinXP Pro instead of W2K Server and I'm using Suse 8.2 instead if Suse Enterprise Server 8.

If you're writing to a Windows system, you have to deal with the limitations of the Windows box's file system, right? Are you running NTFS or FAT32 on the Windows box? FAT32 has a maximum file size of 4GB that you would have to contend with. Terry >On Thu, Nov 20, 2003 at 07:55:51AM +, Joh

As an unrelated, and posibly easy, work-around. Are you able to pipe the file through the split command as you back it up? Even when I have everythign working with large files, I find splitting my backup files at 1GB just makes them easier to work with all around. On Thu, Nov 20, 2003 at 07:55:5
