...or see my posts of a couple of months ago. The other problem is that not only does wget not support >2GB files until the latest versions, but a lot of http servers also incorrectly report the size of said files. There's a switch for that as well.
To the best of my knowledge, only this and the torrent or jigdo based solutions ( same sort of concept for both which is why I lumped them together ) actually work for these large files. ...and finally, there's the odd filesystem that still can't handle them either. I'd say this is a good little tool for those who want to start rolling their own to start on?
