I've been trying to copy an 8meg folder from one computer to another on an ethernet connection. I'm unable to copy it all at once. I assume that there's some size limit. Was wondering what the size limit is or if there's some way to copy the whole folder at once? We're using win98 and transferring from a thinkpad (laptop) to a dell pentiumII tower. Probably at 2 GB issues will arise. But I've moved files nearly that big with no problem. -- The e-mail address in our reply-to line is reversed in an attempt to minimize spam.

I've dealt with folders containing tens of gigabytes, so I doubt there's any practical limit on that.
