Subject: NTFS problem with very large files on Vista and Win2008 (ddrescue)

Just for Info: Writing very large files to NTFS may fail on Vista and Windows Server 2008: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/957065

This may be the case if ddrescue is used on Cygwin to create an image file of a large disk.

Here a problem report from the ddrescue mailing list:
