Files via FTP -> Name too long?
Posted: Fri Mar 23, 2007 12:56 am
When I try to copy a file with a long file name. The file will not copy over to Gentoox.
For example a file like:
"some long song name - author name which goes on very long.mp3"
will not copy for some reason. Why is this? Can windows XP handle long file names that Gentoox can't ?
EDIT: ** just tested, and it won't let me transfer any file names bigger than 42 characters. While in Xp, I can have huge file names.
Note, to copy the files over, I'm simply ftp'ing the files over to gentoox from windows XP.
and they won't copy to my xbox via the evox dashboard either
Ideas?
