Subject: Building tablebases

I was wondering if anyone had the answers to the following two questions:

1) I'm using the tbgen program that comes with fritz 7.  I was comparing the
size of the files on ftp://ftp.cis.uab.edu/pub/hyatt/TB/ and the sizes differ
from the ones I've built.  For example I have a kbbk.tbs file that is listed as
1.35 KB while the one on the ftp size is 1.31 KB.  The .emd files seem to be
coming out the same size.  Might this cause me problems in the future?

2)By using the tbgen program I'm unable to build any endgames with six pieces.
While I don't feel my computer could handle building these in the first place
I'm curious as to how someone might build these tables?

Thanks everyone.
