According to Charles Sandmann: > If someone can find a short name only environment that needs files over > 2GB, and can show they work, I would suggest they re-write the code to > support it, without breaking DOS networking. Yes, FreeDOS does support 4GB (less two bytes or thereabout) files on FAT32. (However there are a bug somewhere as the program never stopped trying to write to the file. I had to C-c it. However I have no time to dig into this.) Furthermore I have no problems creating files on a Linux Samba share from either MSDOS 6.22 with MS TCP/IP or DOS COMMAND.COM window in WINDOWS 98. I didn't create a 4GB file here as there isn't room for it on my Samba share. However this shows that Charles's (or his bug reporter's) bug is WINDOWS (I don't remember which version(s) he mentioned) file server specific. In that case it was impossible to open the file (right?). Right, MartinS
