From my experience, extendnobscounter=no should do the trick.

You might get into trouble if your environment is 64-bit, and the client's is 32-bit only. In that case I'd recommend using proc cport/cimport or the xport engine. Which is probably the best solution anyway.

I used this option in my sas session when I created the sas data files but I'm not confident enough to send it to the client.
