This is because the info-zip utilities can't handle ZIP files over 2Gb in size.
Anyone have any recommendations on a unix tool that'll let me access these large files?
My guess is that the code has not been updated to deal with large fseeks. Looking at the FAQ at http://www.info-zip.org they know that a file longer than 2 GB will have problems because of this.
Correct. I stated that in my post.
My guess is that would affect things the most. My guess is that the windows tools have code to deal with this and the unzip tool needs a rewrite to match it.
And thus my question; does anyone _know_ of a Unix tool that can access this?
