CNFSSTAT pb ( was: I/O error and question about CNFS.)

[Roberto Bertucci]

OK, probably i detected the problem. Open function of perl v4.04 doesn't 
support large files.
If i use 1GB cycbuffers it seems to work fine.

Now i have another problem. My cycbuff.conf says:
cycbuff:77:/newsspool/77:1048576

cnfsstat says
  Buffer 77, len: 2000.00 Mbytes, used: 13.48 Mbytes ( 0.7%)   0 cycles

I see a size mismatch between what i configured and what the utility is 
thinking.

Any hint?

Roberto.
