you sure the system can handle writing 2GB files over NFS? i
read a few places that at least on solaris 2GB should be the
limit for files. i mounted all my nfs exports on solaris machines
with the 'nolargefiles' option to restrict files to 2GB.
is the file exactly 2GB or is it bigger? what happens when you
ftp the file? or scp it? anything but nfs transfer it ?

does the problem still occur when transferring say 2 1GB files?
or 2 1.5GB files?

maybe linux is different ........though ive heard nfs with
linux is one of its biggest downsides. i would lean towards
blaming the nfs client.
