Thanks, Masanori, that works for my test program. But that doesn't help my third-party program, which is why I started investigating this issue. I have a third party, non-open executable that worked fine on redhat 8 with large files, but doesn't work on debian, because of this lstat() issue. If anyone has suggestions for how I can fix this, I'd appreciate it. Thanks, Ketil Froyn -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
