I was able to download a largefile (>2GByte) using an ftp URL, but not via http. Is this an lftp issue or a web server/HTTP problem? In particular, lftp-3.0.6 and lftp-3.1.1 are both able to see the Fedora Core 3 DVD ISO image at the primary Fedora site and kernel.org mirror via ftp but not via http. Both ftp and http work fine from these 2 sites on small (<2GByte) files.
