[Samba] 2GB limit
I have a PC-BSD system running with SAMBA. I wanted to backup an image disk which size is about 10Gb. The system has 4 HD, each 80 GB, so the space was not the problem.
I tried to copy this image data from Windows XP to my PC-BSD system via samba. I could copy up to 2Gb and then I had an error.
I googled to find out how to fix this error and I found that it was fixed some time ago. I verified samba version installed. It is ver 3.26a.
samba-3.0.26a,1
samba-libsmbclient-3.0.26a
I checked the disk format. It is UFS2.
I saw couple blogs saying that it is possible to enable this if the option lfs is enabled.
I checked smb.conf man to see if there was an option that I set incorrectly. So far I couldn't see anything wrong.
My configuration is really simple
workgroup = TEST
netbios name = Test_Srv
server string = Test Server
security = user
[BackUps]
comment = System Backups
path = /media/srvInfo/BckUp
browseable = yes
valid users = test
public = no
writable = yes
printable = no
create mask = 0765
Could you help me to fix this? I don't know where else I can check.
Does any body had similar problem like this with current version 3.26?
Thanks in advance
Simon

There is no such limit in Samba; it i probably a limit in the
underlying filesystem. We create gargantuan (>2Gb) files via Samba all
the time, but we use LINUX ext3/xfs servers.

It's also a limit of the transport filesystem.
Try to map the remote filsystem using cifs instead of smb.
smb has the limit of 2GB
