The following reply was made to PR bin/28820; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Andrew <andrew@pubnix.net> To: freebsd-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.org, andrew@fortress.org Cc: Subject: Re: bin/28820: tar and cpio cannot deal with files > 2GB Date: Sat, 04 Aug 2001 22:47:45 -0400 I have investigated TAR code in create.c. Problem is that counter is a 32 bit long (save_totsize) see line 198. Should be of type off_t to deal with numbers > 2,147,483,647 Probably similar problem with cpio. -- Andrew To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
