I've seen a bit later that the issue raised quite a lot of times in the past,
My point is though that wget compiled on Tru64 OS does work with huge files.

Wget doesn't support >2GB files. It is a known issue that is brought up a lot.
Please patch if you're able, so far no fix has been forthcoming.
Cheers, Jonathan

Hi all, I'm trying to get around this kind of message on I*86 linux boxes
with wget 1.9.1
--11:12:08-- ftp://ftp.ensembl.org/pub/current_human/data/mysql/homo_sapiens_snp_23_34e/RefSNP.txt.table.gz => `current_human/data/mysql/homo_sapiens_snp_23_34e/RefSNP.txt.table.gz' ==> CWD not required. ==> PASV ... done. ==> RETR RefSNP.txt.table.gz ... done. Length: -1,212,203,102
The file is actually more than 3giga, since my main goal is to mirror the whole thing @ensembl-org, It
would be very fine if mirroring could be used with huge files too
There is no trouble though on Tru64 machines.
here is what the .listing file says for this file on the linux boxes :

You can see that the file is appropriately listed , though once the ftp session is started it reports a negative size..
any solution ?
