Lines: 15 I'm trying to create large data log file on my ISC system trough nfs on an other ISC system with a large disk >700 mB. However I cannot create files bigger than about 6 mB (although on both systems the kernel var ulimit and /etc/default/login have been set to 65535. Is there a network config parameter to be set to allow for bigger files? Or is it just not possible? I also run into a problem that I can't create more than 1,000 subdirectories in a directory is this a standard Unix limitation or just a ISC implementation limit? (Please don't tell me I should not do it!) Henk Dijkstra -- Henk Dijkstra || domain: henk@hgatenl.hobby.nl Hobbynet User Group, Netherlands. || Tel: (+31) 3240-61683 (Voice)
