Files larger than 2GB Supported In This Version?

[Lo Sheng <ls post1 com>]

Hi,

I'm wondering if anyone knew if files larger than 2GB are supported via 
Samba in this version?

I was trying to replace the company's NAS with a Linux system, was 
totally caught off guard that the samba installed on Red Hat 8 does not 
support files larger than 2GB, despite the fact that large files are 
supported on Linux's native filesystem. I needed to obtain the patches 
for both ther 2.4.18 kernel's smbfs, as well as smb itself to get it 
work correctly.

It would be great if this is done in this new release from Red Hat!
