You reported cp not working with a large file. I stated that it does even with an older Red Hat Linux distribution. I don't have a bla bla utility that you also claims doesn't work - perhaps that an 8.0 specific utility? Your comment above implies that gftp *is* compiled with large file support, and your comment below that it fails. Which is it? If you really want a good answer, please give us a good problem description. You should start at least with a copy of /etc/mtab and a log showing the failure. .../Ed > Ed Wilts wrote: > > On Fri, 15 Nov 2002, Max Waterman wrote: > > > >>I have been struggling to get large file support in RH 8.0. > >> > >>It seems to me that everything I try to do fails due to there being no > >>large file support compiled into the utilities that come with the OS - > >>eg ftpd, gftp, cp, rcp bla bla. > > > > > > That's odd.
