Sorry, my crystal ball broke, dunno what this script of yours does, try over in comp.unix.shell, before you do that though, search for ESR's article on how to ask a question.

(10.2) What shell is this script using? (BASH, TCSH) What type are the filesystems that data is being copied from and to? (EXT2, REISERFS) Does googling "File size limit exceeded cp" bring you any clues? Richard :)

I think this is the situation. But if I remember correctly, it is NTFS. Have to check first. Thank for helping instead of acting up just because you are trying to help. |
