Are you uploading to the same server, or are these different instances of your server one each on mac and linux? (I presume you are using Apache as your server?)

If these are merely local server instances and not the same physical separate server, then my guess would be a config issue that is different between the two.

Also, is this straight from scratch or are you developing this with something like SWFupload or via Drupal? There are known problems with those two with zero byte files in some cases.

Finally, are you using cgi, php, ruby etc? Which one are you using to handle the upload code?
