Cannot copy ZIP files over LAN

[Tumurbaatar S.]

May be it is related to a security... but sometime
I cannot get to copy some files from one machine to
other one over LAN. File and printer sharing is enabled
and I can connect to a shared folder on the other machine.
There're several files to copy and most of them are compressed
as ZIP. The folder was listed without a problem, I did
all selection, right-click copy and paste on the local folder.
Some files were copied but others raised error 'Cannot copy;
disk full or protected and etc'. And it is interesting that
the files failed to be copied are zipped. Though some zips
were copied normally. So I extracted them on the source
machine to some folder and tried to copy this folder. It was copied
normally. Any ideas?

P.S. The source machine is XP SP2 and the destination one
is Win2K3.

If anybody is interested, here's a list of the folder content
I copied. There're 2 folders created by extraction of corresponding
zips. These 2 zips (postgresql and winfast) were failed to copy.

would it be related to the single file size?

Greets, baatar:

I think it's a bug/feature of windows XP. I had a nearly identica
problem that stemmed from trying to access a zip file on a share
folder that contained files that came from a non-shared source.

See my post about that on pcbanter:
