Hello -

We're running kernel 2.6.6 and having issues with file size limits
(on some of our systems, the users are not able to create files
larger than 2G .. yes, we have very large files).  I've looked and
looked but can't see where this is set (and I've already checked
ulimit but those values are set at unlimited).

My thought is that I need to set something in /etc/sysctl.conf, but
I can't find anything that documents all of the possible entries that
one can make.  Is there something?

Any help would be appreciated,
Debbie


Most probably you have a problem with an application program which processes the big files. The 2.6 kernel itself can process large (>2GB) files without problem, however any program which tries to work with such files should be written with the support of large files.
