[Dspace-general] Submit A ToolBook Tutorial? (zip file)

[courtois@ksu.edu]

Thanks to Andrew for the Zip suggestion.

The Zip file I created is about 350 mb and contains about 250 files. 
When I try to upload it, the process times out (after about 10
minutes).

Is there a limit on the size of files that can be uploaded?  When I up
load smaller zip files, I don't run into the time out problem.

Thanks,

Marty
