Transfering big files to a samba server

[Jean-Marc DURO]

Hello,

I'm saving files from Vista Home Premium to a Linksys NSLU2 Samba 3.0.24-et
server (Linux Debian 4.0r1). When trying to save big files, I can see via
telnet files growing over 1 GB on the NSLU2, but when finished, a popup
appears telling me there was a problem accessing the local file and the
remote file is erased.

The biggest fileI could save on this FAT32 partition is 716 MB. What happens ?

Regards

Jean-Marc

Microsoft update may fix this issue. This link may help. Please post back
with the result.

The Update improves the performance and reliability of Vista
When you copy or move a large file, the "estimated time remaining" takes a
long time to be calculated and displayed...

Thanks Robert, but I get this message (translated): "This update dos not
apply to your system."

I'm using Vista Home Premium French. When downloading KB938979 via the
french pages, there was no no such limitation.
