Cannot copy <filename> path is too deep

[Guest AU]

Hello,

 

I am experiencing this problem on a Windows 2003 R2 SP2 server, the

file/folder character length are less than 255.

 

The clients OS vary from Windows XP to Vista, if I am on my domain

controller and i try to move a big file to my storage server (the one

experiencing the problem) I get this error.

This is happening every time and to everyone, files can vary from 30MB onward.

 

Any idea why guys?

Hello AU,

 

Have a look here for starting:

Are your drives NTFS formatted?
