2.2.x kernels couldn't handle files larger than 2GB. 2.4.x kernels
should be fine as long as you've got glibc-2.2.x.
My guess is that there isn't sufficient space for the file on the remote
end.

If you use split to breakup the files when you tar them, eg:
tar -czPv FilesToTar | split -b 1000m - tarfile
seems to be the right series of commands, YMMV.
To untar the files, this works:
cat tarfile* | tar -xzvPf -

Isn't there some file size problem at 2 gigs? I know I have to split up
my tar files when I do a complete system backup up. I use ext2. About
two gigs is when things seem to get bad. I would split (man split)
this file and then try it.

I've only encountered this using ftp clients on proprietary *NIXen
that have hard-coded limits
How big is this file?

I have a large tar file to down load, but ftp says it is too big for it.
What will do this for me? Thanks in advance.
