Hello once again :)

I posted this in November, but did not receive any responses at the 
time.  With all the talk of mixing 32 and 64-bit systems, it occurred to 
me that perhaps there's a link between word size (and the exceeding 
thereof), and this error.

Is it possible that my 64-bit clients are trying to assign file 
attributes which are too large for my 32-bit servers to deal with, and 
if so, could that result in the error noted above ?
