Backup to desktop 4GB limit
« on: June 01, 2006, 11:50:32 AM »
Hi all
I notice their is a bug open with a 4Gb backup to desktop limit,
I was also aware of another project called "Naslite" http://www.serverelements.com. who had a similiar problem, which they tracked down to a problem with SMB I believe.
Just wondering if its the same problem , maybe it might help having a look at naslite forums for clues/ideas or even asking how they fixed it

quote's

"The Floppy version of naslite has a 4gb smb limt, but all current versions of Naslite+ and Naslite+ usb support file sizes larger then 4gb so you will be fine with your *iso."

Naslite+ V1.3 is now out, if you require to use files sizes above 4GB I suggest you upgrade to Naslite+

http://www.serverelements.com/phpBB2/viewforum.php?f=2

The file size regarding Naslite+ is no longer a issue.
Regards
Jim C

No, SMB isn't used for backup/restore.
