the content-type is what's screwy I'd say. A text file is done when character 126 or 127 are hit..

need to set the default content-type to a binary format.

Would it be too much to ask how? I tried to write this in the httpd.conf file :

Code: Select all

AddType application/x-rar .rar

I was able to download a 2GB file from my server using text/plain.. course.. I have rar files mapped to a rar client... The files were identical.. So I'm not sure what's wrong with your server..
