Hi Alex,
 
I never used CentOS, however independently of the OS it is recommended
not to grow up to much the files to keep them manageable. Otherwise it
takes too much to process them.
Using multiple files when doing the capture and limiting them to lets
say 100MB (or less) you can handle that more easily.
In case you need to see all together wireshark can reassemble the files
automatically opening subsequent files together.

        Hi -

         

        I was just wondering if there was support for trace files larger
than 2GB on x86 machines (CentOS 5) by any chance? And if so, how do you
go about getting this to work?

         

        2.6.18-8.1.3.el5

        libpcap-devel-0.9.4-8.1

        libpcap-0.9.4-8.1

        wireshark-0.99.5

         

        sorry, I'm new, so I apologize if I didn't provide sufficient
information.

         

        Alex
