Hi Kelly,

I’ve got some possibly cool news, after browsing the samba manual and some sources I decided to thoroughly roam SMB4K’s settings. I found a setting to “Use large filesystem support” (I didn’t need to remount either, you might if using CLI mount). Now I’m comfortably rolling past the 3.3GB mark with my backup. If you are using samba manually you must use the “lfs” option, for example:

/usr/bin/smbmount //xxx/D$ /home/jlynch/smb4k/xxx/D$ -o workgroup WORKGROUP ip 192.168.0.xxx netbiosname GENTOO lfs fmask 0755 dmask 0755 port 139 rw username administrator

Cool site BTW! Another gremlin bites the dust, in our modern day shouldn’t LFS be enabled by default? I always assumed the capability of the shares were automatically negotiated, go figure. Feel free to email me any additions or comments.
