"File size limit exceeded" has nothing to do with AFS, but with your limits.
Here the client large file support works very well under Linux and AIX.
(We are using MR-AFS fileservers, so I cannot comment on the server side
of OpenAFS 1.4)

We were testing the --enable-largefile-fileserver option for 1.4.0.
We have found this feature unusable for both SLES9 and AIX 5.2, too - in 1.4.0.
I'm writting here because we need urgent answer about the desired availability
of this option, and our customer is waiting for the result.
For AIX, we've found one (and further more) trivial bug for "vos dump", see
http://rt.central.org/rt/Ticket/Display.html?id=23607.
For linux, we have found that writting a file of 6 GB fails (at the position of
4GB):
dd if=/dev/zero of=6gb_file bs=1MB count=6144
File size limit exceeded
stoneblade11:/afs/.afscell/largemount # ls -sh
total 4.1G
2.0K . 2.0K .. 4.0G 6gb_file
Should it be working, or it's just an experimental feature for testing in 1.4.0
?
Or should it work only since the 1.4.1 series? (I can see it's enabled by
default there.)
Is there (is anybody making) any patch for 1.4.0? Any workaround?
