I've found that on RedHat 7.3 (I haven't checked on older releases) the 2 GB limit exists for ext2, but not ext3. I've had video files choke at 2 GB on an ext2 volume, and after running tune2fs -j /dev/hdd1 and remounting the volume as ext3, I've successfully written video files up to 7 GB long. -- John Abreau / Executive Director, Boston Linux & Unix IM: jabr at jabber.blu.org / abreauj at aim / abreauj at yahoo / 28611923 at icq Email jabr at blu.org / WWW http://www.abreau.net / PGP-Key-ID 0xD5C7B5D9 PGP-Key-Fingerprint 72 FB 39 4F 3C 3B D6 5B E0 C8 5A 6E F1 2C BE 99 Some people say, "The enemy of my enemy is my friend."
