The target file system (xfs) supports large files.  I was running an
"xfsdump" |bzip2>remotefile

I'm surprised to be hit by the small file limit on NFS.  Is there some
specific parameter I need to support large files?

The same command, run locally on the server, runs "fine" (>4GB ok), so
it definitely seems to be a NFS related problem.

Ideas?  Help?

Thanks,

4 GB is the limit of a 32bit processor.

Looks more like she may be using NFSv2. Try NFSv3 instead. You specify it as a mount option.
