For Linux at least that was fixed since 2.0.50, or are you using 1.3 still? w.r.t is_file() or open(), can you give more details? open() on a >2Gb file will give EFBIG not die with SIGXFSZ. *writing* beyond 2Gb will die with SIGXFSZ, yes, is that what you mean? I had a patch to make sure SIGXFSZ was ignored but didn't bother with it since the large logfile stuff went in which solves the common problem. Regards, joe
