Final Summary - possible 2gig limit on usfdump on individual files?

Greetings again,

         Well, I looked on sunsolve to see if the patch was there yet and 
it was.  Here is a link to it.

         http://sunsolve.sun.com/pub-cgi/retrieve.pl?doc=fpatches%2F110387&zone_32=110387

         I'll be downloading and installing it sometime this month, but 
I've been running on the beta ufsdump executable for a while now and have 
not had an issue.

         If you have any questions, feel free to email me.

         thanks,

         Paul
