sgreen Posted May 19, 2002 Report Share Posted May 19, 2002 Getting the following error: Trouble writing: "P4 Backup" (2147420672), error -102 (trouble communicating) 5/19/2002 10:02:38 AM: Execution incomplete Remaining: 5223 files, 3.1 GB Completed: 1716 files, 2.0 GB Performance: 240.2 MB/minute Duration: 00:08:36 (00:00:05 idle/loading/preparing) Trying to use Retrospect to backup to a Linux Server. It seems that Retrospect is viewing the Linux Server as a Windows FAT32 or FAT, and stopping at 2GB. When in fact the server is configured for Windows (CIFS). Macintosh (AppleShare), and Unix (NFS) Files Manager. Did the same script to a local drive on my XP Pro, no problem. It backed up all 5 GB. Clearly it is Retrospect setting the limit. Any workarounds? Thanks - Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgreen Posted May 20, 2002 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2002 I think I figured it out. Linux has a 2 GB File Limit size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lv2ski Posted May 20, 2002 Report Share Posted May 20, 2002 Right! And we do not have a client for Linux yet! But we are working on one. This will help you backup to this machine or backup this machine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
