Hey guys, i think we can close my old thread and begin a new one.

I think this is an integer overflow, because:

If i do a "ls -l backup.iso" on my server share mounted via nfs: -rw-r--r-- 1 ffiene users 3711641600 10. Jul 2007 backup.iso

If i do the same on the same share mounted with cifs: -rw-r--r-- 1 ffiene users 8006608896 10. Jul 2007 backup.iso

The last file size is 2^32 + first file size!

I've copied this file from my old server (SUSE-10.0) to the new one (10.3) via nfs and for gods sake, this was done correctly! So this didn't appear on 10.0's nfs!

I've added a bug report here: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=357528

Please help at this moment backups are not possible with nfs!

Regards! Frank
