On Red Hat Linux 8 with an ext3 file system, you do not have a 2GB file size limitation. To verify this, do: # dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/point/foo.big bs=1024k count=3000 That should give you a 3G file and prove to you that the file system does support large files. It's quite possibly and likely that the application is broken and that it does not support large files even though the operating system does. Also, when reporting problems like this, it's helpful to tell us you which file system you're actually using rather than letting us guess. Do a 'df -T' and it will tell you. -- Ed Wilts, RHCE Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:ewilts@xxxxxxxxxx Member #1, Red Hat Community Ambassador Program -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
