Hi,

I have this error in the sysbk script, in the remote transfer, when the home.tar.gz (backup of all /home) is passed to the ncftput

"Value too large for defined data type" . I have this error in my boxes with Fedora Core 2 and 3 , last kernel in all . Any help¿ how can i fix that?

Thanks
 
how large is the home.tar.gz file?

You may have to prepare incremental backups by checking the box to backup subdirectories of home.

1 giga or 3 gigas , nothing else, with RHEL3 o RH9 no problems even with 15 gigas.

Thanks
 
For many years linux was limited to 2G files, so some software may choke on files over 2G.

I'd recommend the incremental backup option I mentioned in my last post.

I will try the incremental backup ok. Thanks
 
I have the same problem, when I want to send files via ftp

From putty I do this :
Code: 
ftp> put 100620-backup_directadmin.tar.gz

Answer is :
Code: 
local: 100620-backup_directadmin.tar.gz remote: 100620-backup_directadmin.tar.gz
local: 100620-backup_directadmin.tar.gz: Value too large for defined data type

Before, I have no problem.
Some days ago, I do some update in my server, like :
=> PRCE
=> exim
=> krb5

I have another error message from Kerberos when I prepare the files to send via FTP.
/home/admin/admin_backups/user.admin.user2.tar.gz
