The only difference I can surmise is that my command refers to a 2 TB share on a 64 bit
Windows 7 machine.
If I change the address from the .17 to a nonexistent .127 the invalid argument error
goes away.
(the command times out).
Why don't you try setting up a smaller share to see if that influences anything?
