It appears that the Msftpsvc service that runs under IIS on Win2K Pro has an individual file size limit of 2Gb.

What's that all about then ?

Had to move 28 x 2.04Gb files between boxes today, and could I FTP them over, could I heck ? Best bit was that it transfers 2.0Gb then just stops and leaves you a 2.0Gb file on the GET side.

I hate Windows some days ;)

28 x 2GB?

That's one hell of a porn collection! :eek: :eek:

all ms os' have the file limitation size of 2gig

ntfs ones don't... on an Filesystem level anyway ;)

lol find it funny that they leave the limit on the ftp server tho ..
typical ;)

install a descent ftp server :D

or just install a descent OS (i.e. linux)

Not porn ;) Just loads of model (weather) data.

Just seemes strange that the FTP service can only take 2GB but you can create files much larger.

Can't use Linux, can't use a different FTP server due to project restrictions. :(

Plan B is to split them into smaller chunks :(
