Hi,
I was using smbfs on one of our Freebsd servers to mount a 800 GB
raid of a  win2k server with NTFS partition. Mounting seems to be great,
but when I try to copy a 18GB file from the freebsd server to the windows
server, strangely after 4GB it gives time out. Is there any fix for this. I 
was advised to follow some other mailing list but in vain. If there is some 
change in source code needed I am willing to do so.

The command I am using
-----------------------------------
# mount_smbfs //BACKUP_SHARE_USER@terabyte1/home5 /home5
terabyte1 is my win2k server with netbios enabled.

Uname output on my unix server
---------------------------------------------

Is any patch available to fix this problem.

Regards
SSR
